1 year agoZero hopes on this seeeing how their current “entry” computers are still stuck on 8GB/256GB hell like we’re in 2016 just to have an attractive “starting from” moniker, but getting usable RAM and storage multiplies the price by two.
8GB are 8GB, it doesn’t matter how fast they are. It should be illegal selling a computer that’s impossible to upgrade with so little RAM that it won’t be able to hold more than half a dozen browser tabs in 3 years time, seeing how fast web apps are ballooning in requirements and how more and more desktop apps are turning into websites inside a wrapper that take 4x the resources of a native app. The actual price of these things is twice the “starting from” if you don’t want to end up stuck with literal e-waste in a record time.
