[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1614242, member: 38864"] I want to get all up in arms over it, but when I sit and really think about it, does it really matter? I think someone who is unprepared for the RAM not being upgradable might get burned in a few years if/as OS X gets more memory hungry, but a well-prepared buyer should account for that in advance. Well ok. ideally I'd rather not pay the "Apple Tax" up front for increased RAM. What they charge for RAM upgrades does bug me. But anyway, back to performance... if an SSD is standard, I don't think being stuck at the minimum amount of RAM recommended down the road for a future release of OS X is going to be as much of a handicap as it has been on older Macs with HDDs and capped at 2 or 4 GB of RAM. It'd be a problem for a "power user", but like I said, such a person should know well enough to buy for future needs. [/QUOTE]
