I'm a little disappointed Apple, the new MBP doesn't have a top of the line graphics card, and it's still stuck to 16GB of ram. This is hardly a pro option.

I wonder if I need a #hackentosh if I want 32GB of RAM, and an nVidia 950M or better.

Do you really need >16GB to be considered 'pro' these days?

You can have 64GB on a MacPro. Hope that's 'pro' enough.

128GB if you use slower ram.

I run several VMs at once on mine, and 16gb is constraining. Put me in the "the Pro is no longer so Pro" camp.

I regularly have six to eight virtual machines in flight at any given time and never feel constrained. Are you sizing them appropriately for their tasks?
