nothing has changed

that MacBook had upgradable RAM, so really things have changed for the worse

The main problem is that it’s not upgradable, if it was upgradable you can give me 2GB on the base model and I wouldn’t care, RAM is cheap.

The situation now is you spend 1599$, then in a few years if you want more RAM/Storage you need to buy a new laptop again because it’s impossible to upgrade.
