They’ve always way overcharged on RAM upgrades, except for when the M4 came out and they bumped all base RAM to 16GB for free, making the M4 Macs a slightly better than average value when comparing to prior Macs.

I don’t think the RAM upgrade cost has recently gone up either, but I could be wrong.

Yeah I miss the little door on the PowerBooks and early MacBook pros and iMacs that let you put standardized memory in. All mine had maxed out Crucial or Corsair ram modules a month or 2 after getting the Mac.

Then they started tying graphics cards to package upgrades and you ended up getting more ram no matter what.

Then the Stewart enshitification culminated in single board PCs with zero owner upgrade paths.

It hasent gone up. Their long term gouge now just matches the rest of the industry for the first time ever.
