Power is meaningless without RAM. It's like a Lamborghini rolling on bicycle tires.

It does. It's not listed in the specs but there are teardown videos that show it. Austin Evans did one and showed this.
I mean that's often going to be the case. That's why you don't compare used PCs to new ones.
Almost as ass as a an irreparable, unupgradeable $700 Macbook with a phone processor and 8GB of RAM.
True, but now you're talking about used PCs.
These are CPU benchmarks, they don't account for available RAM.
What they said
Which is exactly why I specified "NVMe port" and not M.2
...no, it has NVMe. Why are you making this up?
Put up, or shut up.
...what am I supposed to "put up", exactly?
So it's a case of "everyone's stupid except for me"?
No, lots of other people also understand that they're swindlers.
your average consumer doesn't give a shit about having a 3.5 jack in their phone
Whoosh. It wasn't about "the average consumer", it's about why people are upset about trends in a market, even if it's not something they would ever buy.
It's not saving these companies a ton on manufacturing to not include one. They cost pennies each when purchased in bulk.
LOL you actually thought this ever had anything to do with saving money? Did you not notice that they also released another product simultaneously that now makes enough money on its own to be a Fortune 500 company? They created a problem and then immediately turned around and sold people a solution. Absolute masterclass in swindling.
There's no such thing as a "flawless" LLM
