Apple has a memory problem and we're all paying for it::Apple still sells expensive "Pro" computers with just 8GB of RAM and charges a fortune for more.

I take that risk with any piece of equipment.

No you don't. You take that risk exclusively with Apple products.

My experience with my Apple products has been great!

This isn't about anyone's personal experience.

My first Apple computer, a 2011 MacBook Pro, is still running and used regularly by my niece and nephews.

That product is from a bygone era where you could upgrade and repair your Apple devices very easily, like any other computer.

Totally get that some people haven’t been as lucky and don’t like Apple or their products.

Again, this is not about anyone's personal experiences, and it's not about what people "like". This is about throwing buckets of cash at a company that repeatedly pisses in your face and tells you it's raining. Apple has no respect for their customers, but their customers will continuously lick their boots regardless. It's fucking sad and infuriating and people like you are responsible for the erosion of society as a whole.
