This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Vote with your wallet. Well, those buying this kind of mac are basic users (non-pejorative), so it will continue to be there.
I love when back in the day people said that mastering the hardware and software would help to drive cost down, well their cost. :)
I don't have an Mac. How much RAM does it use just to turn it on? Windows 10 needs an astounding 4 GB just to see the desktop.
Windows RAM allocation depends on your ram size. If you have more ram, it will allocate more. Unused RAM is wasted RAM
Windows doesn't use it all to load the desktop. It caches the rest so the files and software you use often loads faster. There's also the reserved RAM for the hardware...
At least 4GB, my previous employer was a young guy that was an Apple simp. He bought a bunch of Mac minis as desktop computers and they only had 4GB of RAM. They were the most garbage piece of shit computer I have ever had the displeasure of being forced to use. It really wasn't even usable, it would lock up just trying to open any web browser or even the file explorer (or whatever Apple calls it). It really amazes me how Apple continues to shit in their customers mouths, tell them it's chocolate ice cream and they believe them
Money is the bottleneck.
