Well, I know why. I understand that the more ram the Macs ship with, the more they're going to cost. But I purchased an eMac 2 weeks ago and decided to wait to purchase extra ram for a few weeks.
I am blown away at how poorly OS X runs with only 128 mb of ram. It's very frustrating and borderline unusable. Now please understand me, I have been using the computer quite a lot these past two weeks, but when I throw down $1200 on a brand new computer I expect it to run great as-is. I don't want to have to take it home immediately upgrade so it performs decently.
My roommate's 3 year old Dell runs Windows better than my brand new Mac runs OS X. I may just be venting, but explain to me the logic behind this. All these Windows users are supposed to switch to Macs are not going to understand why their computer runs like shat right out of the box.
