[QUOTE="Morgan Irwin, post: 1058541, member: 17017"] The real question has to be what work are you doing that you feel that you need to have 16gb of RAM. The reason I pose this question is that the architecture on the new M1 devices is significantly different to the older separate architecture of the older devices. You will find that new 8gb of RAM will go a lot further than 16gb of old RAM. I also find myself in one of these predicaments using a 2016 MacBook pro with 16gb of RAM (starting to think about what I get next), my situation appears to be a little different as I am planning to attempt the (semi) "laptop-less" work environment and get an iPad for my needs... but I do agree, it is a challenging question to ask. I would honestly say though that the new M1 Air's with the 8bg of RAM are actually incredibly capable and you would probably find them once again serving you for years to come. [/QUOTE]
