1000$+ for uni shit is the most astounding thing I’ve ever heard
Comment on 8GB RAM in M3 MacBook Pro Proves the Bottleneck in Real-World Tests
DJDarren@thelemmy.club 7 months agoMy kid grabbed an 8/256 M2 Air when they first launched last year, and is still overjoyed with its performance. He has a PS5 for gaming, so the Mac is for uni work and downloading shit. 8gb RAM isn’t inherently bad.
It’s just as you said though; it’s bad for a “Pro” machine.

Man, you should watch new series of Planet Earth then, because there are some significantly more astounding things on that than someone spending their own money on a computer they wanted.

No thanks. People making dumb financial decisions will be always more astounding.
Maybe because I didn’t grow in rich family but okay carry on, I wasn’t judging. It was genuinely fascinating to me

$1000+ for basic word processing and web is bonkers to me.

Fair. But he likes using it and there’s more to value than the monetary cost of a device. For a start, there’s the build quality, but also the integration with his iPhone.

Oh it’s entirely up to him how he spends his money, didn’t mean to suggest otherwise.
