To own an Apple product is to own a cheap device may no longer be the case.

It has always been the case that Apple puts cheap RAM in its products, but
with the advent of AI, Apple has to join the modern world to give customers
of its platform a costly upgrade that other platforms have always enjoyed.

He claims he doesn't see my posts, so I don't see how me replying in a
manner which let's others understand the flaws in his positions is
"feeding" him.
