They should do 4Gb. I hear M3 mac's make it seem like 8Gb.
If you allocate it right, you can add 200GB of swap space and then that 4GB of RAM will feel like 408GB!
I think you mean gigabytes, not gigabits.
8 Gb = 1 GB
Darn you broadband
That’s true. Data transmission is usually measured in bits, not bytes. Gigabit Ethernet can only transmit a maximum of ~128 MB/s.
You mean they can even make 0.5GB appear as 8GB?! That's 16x! That apple silicon is just something else!
8Gb from 4Gb is 1GB from 0.5GB 😉
