I wish they'd put the 16GB/1TB version on sale...8GB is not enough!

8gb of RAM is disgusting and insulting. Nobody should be buying this laptop.

WTF is Apple thinking? They should be getting absolutely blasted by everyone for this.

I’d wager most people are using their computer for Microsoft Office, Zoom, or browsing the web. 8GB is plenty for those people. The “power user” is a very small minority.

Browsing the web with lots of open tabs needs more than 8GB unless one is OK with constant swap to SSD (which means SSD will fail sooner).

Browsing the web with lots of open tabs needs more than 8GB unless one is OK with constant swap to SSD (which means SSD will fail sooner).
Again, the average user doesn’t know what an SSD is or swap. I doubt they are even using that many tabs because they aren’t doing much on their computer. I know a lot of older folks who go on the computer and check their email and that’s about it. These computers are perfect for that kind of person.

You’ll buy more RAM if you know you need it. If you have to ask you probably don’t need more RAM. This entire forum is an echo chamber because you have to be at a certain level of technical adeptness to even sign up and start posting here.

My son has been using his M1 air for almost 3 years now and he does everything including programming in it and he hasn’t had any problems.
Does he have only 8GB? Has he checked the SSD health?
