What&amp;#x27;s going on? I thought the MacBook replaced the air, an the MacBook pro is a merger of the MacBook and MacBook pro?&lt;p&gt;Have the MacBook and MacBook air &amp;quot;switched&amp;quot;?</text></comment>

There&amp;#x27;s only two options upfront: 8GB and 16GB and I know what I need. The non-serviceable storage however, even with the Thunderbolt 3 ports for external storage (because who wants external storage on a laptop), is a bummer.&lt;p&gt;I just recently upgraded an 11&amp;quot; Air from 128 GB SSD to 1 TB SSD. It seems that storage demands only go up over time; that&amp;#x27;s much less so the case with RAM or CPU these days.</text></comment>
