>> RAM is cheap. I think I paid $100 to upgrade my Mac Book Pro to 16 GB.

RAM was cheap. Prices have went up a lot. Most DDR3 prices have almost doubled since this past spring/winter. 16GB laptop kits are ~ $140 when they were $75 a few months back. Still relatively cheap, though.

Not to mention Apple only makes 1 laptop that you can add your own RAM to nowadays (13" MBP). It's $200 to go up to 16GB on a Retina.
