@jeder not sure what the ram prices are like where you are, but here they've been dropping quite quickly the past few months

@jeder @mikoto i've never owned anything AMD newer than Bulldozer/Steamroller (2014), mainly because in my market it's really not that worth buying

there is always a better value older option for less

@jeder @mikoto i mean you can't add an external battery on mine either, you can connect an USB C dock though

@jeder @mikoto ultrabooks suck ime

they tend to be so weak the fact that they draw little power is moot because they're just gonna consistently draw max power and drain the battery fast

@jeder @mikoto the high perf chip in mine is good at not drawing too much power when it's not needed and kicking into overdrive when it is, its the best compromise

though that's probably also partly responsibility of Windows because my battery life on it is great for such a shit health battery
