QUOTE(dman @ Nov 18 2020, 02:41 PM) Based on the reviews, the 8gb ram machine performed better than the 16gb intel version in photo editing software. So it's safe to say that the new 8gb ram is the new 16gb while 16gb is the new 32gb... About the 256gb storage, should not enough. QUOTE(KINTREX @ Nov 18 2020, 03:26 PM) QUOTE(kevinpss @ Nov 18 2020, 05:43 PM) I think 8GB is good enough to use for the next 5 years....just my thoughts... Thanks guys, appreciated your comments.I do have concerns on 8GB RAM especially come to open/working on huge Excel file. Considering the machine instructions are different now with ARM, i think RAM will make less sensitive compare to the X86 framework OS. I plan to use 1 or 2 year, because MBP entry model seems not worth for me. Plan waiting next gen high end MBP to become my main heavy workstation.
