There's little more annoying than being told you can't update the OS with the patch your Mac just downloaded b/c you don't have enough space… and now you're stuck with even less space on the ssd than usual b/c the downloaded update is still sitting around.
And you think that the other person is a "boomer" because they think that's dumb?

I also have a PC that has more than 256GB of storage. So does that make the opposite of my argument also irrelevant? So my argument and the counterargument to it are both simultaneously irrelevant?

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank jdmmem
I don't even agree that 256GB is too low. But it's a valid/reasonable critique. And paid cloud storage is not a good argument against that critique.
The dude called them a boomer for not embracing paid cloud storage as the end all be all of this discussion. That's just silly.
one of the 3 local stores has the 8GB/256GB M3 15" for $899 but that's not much of a deal.

I still don't understand how the base model configuration is anything to critique though. If you need more than 256gb, get a machine with more storage. That option is available regardless of your feelings on their pricing structure. And there are plenty of other good options besides on-board storage too: NAS, Cloud Storage, Thunderbolt external, etc., which for the vast majority of users getting a base model machine are perfectly capable of handling their needs.
They get hung up on the data points that they completely forget who the target audience is. The people buying a 16gb RAM/256gb storage laptop don't care as much about the specs like those who study spec sheets.
I don't buy base model machines, I get them configured with what I need. I need more storage, I got the model with more storage. I needed a RAM upgrade, I got the one with more RAM. Just because the option presented doesn't fit your needs doesn't make it a bad deal, it's just not for you.
Last night, I sniped an open-box excellent 24gb/512gb/15 inch for 801. Using a citi custom cash to reach the threshold for a $200 bonus + $25 cashback. Bringing the total to $576 for a machine that goes for $1300.

I got my MacBook Pro m1 16 inch for 1k OTD from micro center like year ago. was refurbished, but was literally brand new. factory warranty I think just expired, but still got a 2nd year due to credit card. I was ecstatic.
the machine is absolutely great. 512gb and I tossed a 512gb micro ssd in the little slot for pics/videos/photos.
that said, I wish I had air, its a beast but its annoying lifting the 10lb block up and down off couch lol. im lame. if I saw that 15 inch id of snagged it and sold my M1 Pro
