I don't really care unless it has the same price point as the 8gb one.

But we all know it won't be.

Posted this in another reply, but their entry level hardware has decreased in price over the years I think:

In 1999, the iBook was US$1599 (equivalent to $2925 in 2023) (source).

The 2010 13" Air was $1299 (more in today's $) (source).

The current 13" M3 Air is $1099 (source).

$1000-$1100 is still a lot to ask of me specifically, but that is closer to market IMHO
