4 months worth of my income on a MacBook

Is it bad that I can't tell if you're middle income or just want enough RAM to do something useful?

I can't tell if you're middle income

I'm from Brazil. I didn't know this term, but quick googling shows me that Brazil is an upper-middle-income country.

I make around R$ 3620 ($740 USD) per month, a more than average income in Brazil. A MacBook Air M2 15" comes for R$ 15000 ($3069 USD).

I just vomit at the idea that they're making these laptops with ram soldered in. unupgradable garbage you have to pay ridiculous premiums for.

bu bu but its "Apple Unifed Memory" and 8GB of that equals to 16GB of regular ram!!1!

I get that they're using some fancy mem, it's not like pc1600 dimms or some shit... BUT not ever being able to yank the old and pop in new? bonkers.
