Answered my own question. Turns out 16gb is a ‘custom build’ and only available from Apple. Do I need 16gb? By all accounts these things are savage but I’m keen to future proof as much as possible. I’m not goi g to be rendering 4K video, but it seems logical that future apps will use more ram? The £200 outlay now seems reasonable if it gets a few extra years out of it.
