    I’d love to know how many 8GB models they ever sold. Part of me always believed that the 8GB model was there so they could advertise a low low price in commercials, but the second you were at the store you’d get upsold to 16GB because sheeit who wants 8? I’m sure some folks still went for the lowest price they could get. I would just love to know how many.

      Enh. I’m still using my 2018 Mac Mini with 8 gigs just fine.

      I’ve been waiting til 16 became the base to upgrade. Maybe this is the year!

    • I don’t have figures but used to work for Apple. They sold a lot.

      I would also like to clarify we were never instructed or had the desire to upsell, in fact I and I assume everybody else would downsell. If you come in for the top of the line and you tell me you’re watching YouTube then I’m down selling you.
