How much longer will #Apple play the crazy greed game of charging its customers $200USD for 8gb of ram. or $200USD for a measely 256gb of extra SSD storage space. Plus they purposely slowed down the base SSDs to further "force" you to pay the upgrade prices.
For this reason alone, I'm not upgrading my M1 Macbook Air to an M3 model.
