I don't really care unless it has the same price point as the 8gb one.

But we all know it won't be.

£15 more RAM. £150 more price.

Posted this in another reply, but their entry level hardware has decreased in price over the years I think:

In 1999, the iBook was US$1599 (equivalent to $2925 in 2023) (source).

The 2010 13" Air was $1299 (more in today's $) (source).

The current 13" M3 Air is $1099 (source).

$1000-$1100 is still a lot to ask of me specifically, but that is closer to market IMHO
