It’s fine to if you don’t have any memory hogging apps. But as soon as you fire up a couple demanding Docker containers you’ll feel the pain. 8GB isn’t so much RAM for some applications.

Why do you think people buying the cheapest MacBook available will be running Docket? Do you commonly run Docker containers on the cheapest Windows laptop available? Why not?
