My MacBook Air with 24GB of unified RAM is enough to run something simple and useful.
That's like what, 5 or 6k?
Like 1k
Price is comparable to a used RTX3090 with 24GB vram, which is probably more attractive to someone who is also interested in Linux/Windows gaming (and already owns a pc I mean). I would also guess that the RTX would be faster than the MacBook. IMO unified ram is more interesting when you can get a lot of it
The problem with that is you still have to buy the rest of the computer to put that 3090 in.
Reasonable price!
