Exactly. No sane, life-having person wants to deal with that hassle (and possible warranty-voiding)! So either a) put the access hatch back to make it easy like it once was, or b) sell the 21.5" BTO RAM at the online store for a more reasonable, competitive price. The numbers they're asking are a little ridiculous.
Pick one. Because it's supremely jerky, IMO, to do neither, as is currently the case (and has been for seven-plus years now).
They're basically punishing those who prefer the 21.5" model. At least owners of the 27" iMac can get online at all the usual joints and track down a great price to upgrade their RAM anytime they want. Buyers of the 21.5" must pay Apple's nutball, inflated BTO RAM prices, on the day of purchase, to get anything beyond the stock 8GB. That's beyond irritating.
And they've never thrown buyers any sort of "we'll meet you halfway and be a little more reasonable" bone on this front.
"Hey, guess what? We're gonna weld it shut and bend you over the table. You're welcome!"
