And they told me I was crazy for putting 64 gigs into my machine back in early 2021. I "only" paid about 200 USD

I bought a netbook (GPD Win Max 2) with 64GB of RAM last year. It was really expensive, by 2025 standards.

But now I feel like I have the power of the universe in my jacket pocket. Best irresponsible buying decision I ever made.

I got mine 2 (or shit, is it 3 now) years ago - 10/10 best laptop purchase in a long while.

GPD have done well for themselves in the small screen laptop space!

I knew somehow similar thing would happen in coming years. Alas, I had neither money nor requirement for that.
