Ever been this low? Waiting for 8GB vs. 16GB debate to begin.

The specs of the m1 chip negates the need for upping to 16gig of memory. We need to think past Intel now.

not true. it will just use hard disk for swap. this will kill the device in 8 years.

How can I get to be a student? Can I take a local cooking class at the community center? A bridge class? What proof do I need? I have an edu email I got for being an alum.

I guess 16 will always be better for high end 4K and 8k video editing although most people will only need 8.

Hmmm. Definitely not seeing the $749 price. It's $999.99 and ends up at $849.99 after the $150 student discount. Doesn't matter whether I select store pickup or the shipping option.

(Edit: problem is BBY iOS app doesn't offer the $100 checkbox; only the mobile or desktop site do)

yes, did in-app chat and rep refunded me 53.17.

Thanks for this, will be doing a price match first thing tomorrow. Worst case I'll just buy the machine again and return the one I have right now.

why do folks think the price is dropping some quickly? what specs should we expect to see in the next MB Air?

I actually believe they are trying to make everyone buy these things and saturate the market.

Also - I bought one for 899 with free airpods by selecting on Apple's site that it was for a student, about 6 weeks ago. So this is hot, but with the airpods on Apple with an Apple card and 0% interest that competes.

At this price, it will sell like hot cakes. Bought myself the Silver model, heck $799 was a killer price already.
