This was understandable when memory was small and CPUs were slow (e.g. 64Mb ram and 250mhz CPU).

This was understandable when memory was small and CPUs were slow (e.g. 64Mb ram and 250mhz CPU).
Apple and Microsoft seem to be determined to reverse the progress made other computer companies.
Then again these kind of restrictions means that components are cheaper but charge a premium price anyway.
A win-win for the company (cheap components and higher profits).
A lose-lose for the consumer (less than premium product but charged premium price).
