The pro is a different animal and I think it can go higher than that. The pro is a super desk top used for very heavy applications. Film makers and such use them I believe.
The MacBook Pro is not in the same category as the Mac Pro, the Mac Pro can also hold piles of processors and cores and cost more than $10,000. Still quite small of a server compared to some of the Dell and HP hardware I work with but very very good for heavy graphics rendering or serious cad stuff like that. > On Sep 13, 2016, at 10:28 AM, Sarai Bucciarelli <sarai.bucciare...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > The mac Pro goes to 32. >> On Sep 12, 2016, at 10:14 PM, Scott Granados <sc...@qualityip.net >> <mailto:sc...@qualityip.net>> wrote: >> >> I know, I wish the ram was upgradable in my 15.4 inch MacBook Pro now, I >> don’t believe it is.
