  • So....what? I have broadly similar on a 2018 intel MBP.

    The point is with this release they are not targeting people who need to do that (or heavy image processing stuff) - they are targeting people who want a computer to do communications and entertainment, hence the low(er) amount of RAM. That the M1 can do all that with a bigger screen and twice the RAM is kind of missing the point.

  • Cool.

    My point was that the 8Gb of ram is not a barrier to running multiple CPU / ram hungry apps whilst outputting a shit tonne of pixels.

  • Ah cool, I missed that. I know there was some chat about the M1 needing less ram compared to the intel stuff to do the same job, but I thought that was largely debunked.
