The $1599 M5 Macbook Pro: Good enough for a guy who thinks a 12-year-old MacBook with 8 gigs of ram is "still perfectly usable"

:)



I know it’s silly, but I think I represent over 90% of apples customers in that way. I just need something that reads emails and shows me porn.

You're not silly, you're just able to see reality.

Apple knows who is buying the bulk of their computers, and it isn't power users ... most people buying computers don't have a clue what RAM is even used for.

I'd hit beachballs, but macOS balances 8GB of RAM fine even with Tahoe for regular users


That 90% are perfect candidates for the even cheaper Macbook Air lineup.
