Do you think one of the features of the M2 will be a higher RAM ceiling? 32GB? I ask because the aluminum 21.5" iMac, priced in the low/mid-$1,000's and that nobody saw as any sort of "pro" Mac, was, in its later years, able to be configured with 32GB.

Or is 32GB RAM (and up), for technical reasons, something that will only be part of the Pro/Max AS offerings?

Seems weird, in 2022, that a $1,500+ iMac (24" or otherwise) would be limited to 16GB, so will that be one of the main features/improvements of the M2, slated for non-pro Macs?
You just asked this the other day https://forums.applenova.com/showthr...t=39194&page=2

TL;DR: the M2 might offer 32. Maybe not. The M3 probably will.
