Ok but……who the hell runs blender and FFP in 8GB?

The vast majority of users are NOT running pro apps like that.

It’s just a name. If you’re actually running pro stuff, you’d be an idiot to run that on 8Gb no matter what machine.

Apple’s argument that it’s the same as 16gb is dumb, but anyone actually using pro apps on 8Gb is dumber. The majority of browser(with sane numbers of tabs)/iPhoto/office users really are probably not gonna notice.

Imagine buying a $1600 US laptop to use blender.

My laptop can't run blender anymore. But, it's 12 years old.
