   Actually, he is correct. The MacBooks offered less RAM and storage while   
   using outdated processors from the same x86 or x86-64 platform. It's   
   something they are _still_ doing to this day. Granted, the processor is   
   more energy-efficient and the storage performs at the peak of what the   
   competition is offering, but the immediate numbers (storage size, RAM   
   amount) shows that Apple is purposefully skimping.
