Yep that's true. It's impressively fast on my brand new 32GB HP Spectre though.

Side-rant: It's nuts how hard it is to find a good laptop that has 64G RAM, let alone "more than 64G" as you cite. I finally thought I found one in a Thinkpad X1 2-in-1, but then it just had terrible build quality, broken speakers (low rumbling sound, unfixable even after a repair and a replacement), badly working components (eg fingerprint reader) etc. I ended up returning it. The HP is a full 1000 euros cheaper (!), and it's better in every way (incl processor speed) except the smaller RAM. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Hibernate is not just for laptops though. I have a workstation with 128G of memory, and it’s annoying that the file allocates the full 128G even though i may only be using like 32G. I mean SSD’s have become cheaper but still..

Like this one? Found it in ~30s

There was a dark time in Apple's lineup (2015-2020) when they ran hot, the keyboard was widely considered terrible, battery time was unimpressive, and the lack of ports forced everyone to carry half a dozen dongles everywhere... These times are gone.

Oh true, Macbooks do seem expensive, until you consider actual value. If "an actual computer" is the primary tool of your trade, I'm 100% convinced it's good ROI to invest in your own comfort/productivity/peace of mind.

I'd buy a mac overnight if it had a touch screen and a proper OS
