Excuse me while I laugh my ass off. Looking at the 15" pro with touchbar to name one model it starts at about $2400 with no upgrades. An upgrade to 512 can be had for $200.

In order to be in your position your company had to simultaneously overpay AND underpay. How can you be so cost conscious that you say nah give them the tiny ssd it costs less while shelling out 2400+ per unit

Why are you blaming us as users for a decision made beyond our control? Yes, we "get it" already, Apple is overpriced. I'm really happy for you that you get to decide what gear you use. Rubbing it other peoples faces really makes it better, so thanks for that.

I'm not blaming you just laughing at the absurdity of the matter not you personally.

Funny way of putting it, yet so true. My employer decided (without asking me) to get me one with 128GB storage. IN 2018!

You’re talking to the wrong guy buddy.

That got a downvote? For telling the other guy he was addressing the wrong user. Ha, it's actually funny.
