    96GB of DDR5 laptop memory is $350

    Maybe it’s better to compare LPCAMM2 form factor prices. For that, 64GB is $329. Still not quite the same as adding 16GB for $400, but it’s a better comparison.

      Thanks for a more apt comparison. I’d imagine Apples price is far less than the retail prices. Even then I’d be happy paying $400 for 64 gb in a m4 mac book. I’d be even happier with a ram slot again.

        I don’t think they’d go back to off-package RAM anymore. The benefits of putting it on one package is too great, and gives them just enough cover to be able to charge like crazy for it.
