if 32 GB is not “pro”, i don’t know if we have the same understanding about what “pro” means


That’s like... 1 Slack and a dozen Chrome tabs. :|


I have 64GB in my Thinkpad P71. I got it ~2 years ago. Why so much ram? I make money with this beast. How's your Starbucks?


I bet I make at least twice the money with half the RAM. ;)

Weird thing to belittle someone over there man.


you basically did the same thing with your comment


I'm just speaking his language to deflate his ego a little bit by showing him that his point that RAM = money has no basis in reality.


I was making fun of the fact that he thought 32 was pro. I slam into the 64gb limit on my laptop daily.


I think that's egotistical gatekeeping. There's no basis for 64GB being "pro" and 32GB not (or even 16GB or 8GB, for that matter). You can make millions of dollars on an MacBook Air with 8GB of RAM. Your use case does not dictate what is a reasonable amount for other professionals.


What do you do with 64 GB on your personal machine to use it up completely? Just curious..
