    For years people have known it can’t be upgraded. You know that going in.

    Not sure that is true, lots of people see the marketing for a MacBook and think that any of them will be enough. Or see the price difference and think they are getting a good deal, or don’t understand why that is. I’ve had to tell people, sorry I know you spent a lot of money on this, but it does not have the storage for what you are wanting to do. Yes, the only way is to buy another one.

    Otherwise yea, everyone tries to gaslight customers into thinking they didn’t get ripped off.

      Sure, some people buy a computer without knowing anything about the computer.

      Unified memory is not user accessible. If you think you’ll need additional memory, it’s a good idea to upgrade now.

      They say it right there. Should it be red and flashing? Should there be a confirm button?

      If you go into the Apple Store, someone who is trained to help is always available, and various models are typically in stock.

      I’d like to firmly repeat, that Apple never should’ve said that bullshit. Also I feel that 16 gigs should be the standard amount for any Apple laptop. They are premium products. Perhaps the Mac Mini could start at 8.

      And since you pulled out the gaslight, I’ll call you a misinformed accuser.
