Thinking about moving to Windows??? Think again…

[Phil Hoppes]

My Mac is a MacBook Pro not a MacPro. Yea I always by my memory from Crucial. Get the minimum from Apple and upgrade it elsewhere.

On this model MacBook Pro Crucial only lists an 8Gb upgrade. (Not bad at all, its $53 and change) MacSales (https://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_1333MHz_SDRAM) has a 16Gb upgrade for this MacBook Pro but it is $580. Actually that is down significantly from when I bought it in June. Then the 16Gb upgrade was around $1000. Apple does not even off that much although they may now, I’ve not looked. They did not when I purchased it.

For my PC about a month ago I upgraded it to 24Gb of ram for a whopping $180. Just checking newegg and that is already down to $150. Gotta love it.

Or maybe people with more money are more likely to have the extra money to spend on Macs.

I use both, and am platform agnostic. Maybe I’m only 22% richer.
