So you know, Apple does not sell the MacBook pro line any more with anything 
less than 8 GB.  The 2015 models have a minimum of 8 GB and a dual core option 
only on the 13 inch and quad core option on the 15 inch.

I don’t believe there’s any such animal any more as a 4 GB model.  At least in 
the pro line, air is a different matter.

Thanks
