Or just a mini configured default 128GB or 256GB.

I've been using Qwen3:32b on a 32GB M1 (asahi) and it does most of what I need, albeit a bit slow, but not slow enough that I´d pay monthly for remote ad delivery.

I suspect this huge splurge of hardware spending is partially an attempt to starve the market of cheap RAM and thus limit companies releasing 128GB/256GB standalone LLM boxes.
