Does midrange being at 8GB mean that entry level will be 4GB? because I know corpos are gonna be corpos.
(I don't think windows even run at 4GB lmfao)
Edit: Also, this RAM shortage might force people to use Linux ๐
Im really surprised Microsoft hasn't already come out with a chrome-os like neutered version of windows specifically for this.
They did for education purposes.
