Uh, I think you are agreeing with my last point…? You savvy user you.

Yes but it's annoying to being forced to workaround the issue with USB drives..

Also I'd like to get 32gb or 64gb because it's shared with GPU... But a Mac mini with 64gb costs 2500 euro (THREE TIMES!!!) instead of the 750 euro base model with 16gb...

I think that is funny

3 complete mac minis, all of them with 16gb ram= 2200 euro, total 48gb divided in the three machines
a single mac mini, with a huge 256 gb SSD drive (for the standards that were popular last decade), with 48gb of extra RAM over the base one = 2500 euro

Yeah true skimming eh! Fuck Apple.

Yes it's annoying, which is why storage on the list. I have different but equal complaints about other manufacturers.

FWIW I usually advise a compromise at 512GB as that is enough for most current working active projects, then periodically offload to a media or archive drive. Most clients are fine with that.

In the cases where 32GB of RAM is needed and not just nice to have, maybe a different computer is better, like LLM capable machines with discrete GPUs. If you need more RAM for professional purposes like Vectorworks, well it’s a write-off and the cost vanishes compared to ROI so whining is just indulgent.
