[QUOTE="desiibond, post: 2495190, member: 23023"] Convince me then. I owned couple of laptops, Mac mini, Macs and built countless desktops for friends and cousins from 1990s. If you think this is not enough, automation is what I am paid for. I don't know why you are bringing theft, EFI, encryption and all into a discussion where we are saying that 8GB on a 1.7L MacBook Pro is just not right. Security and privacy are one of the reasons why I shifted completely to Apple ecosystem (other than integration) and it does not mean that Apple can fleece me left and right. Apple's Mac sales are down due to this very reason and if they continue to go down this path where the only way one can get desired performance in MacBook Pro is by paying 3L or more, the only MacBook sales will be that of M1 MacBook Air for 70k during Flipkart sale. I have not even talked about how much Apple charges for enterprise devices/support. "I was told that" they absolutely fleece corporates in the name of enterprise support. Probably one of the reasons why my parent company gives Macs only to those who does iOS development and everyone else is getting Dells and Thinkpads. What? Reminds me of 'you are holding it wrong' statement from Apple. Paying 2.1L + 20k for Apple Care hurt my wallet (I paid without using credit card) and there was no choice for me. There are countless such buyers who are buying because of the need. ROFLMAO. Nailed the sarcasm. People justifying this saying 'there is a reason' is annoying, then comes mansplaining (to other men who are techies) about Mx architecture to justify these actions. [/QUOTE]
