What’s the big deal?
My needs require more, this was entry level storage 12 years ago, it’s overpriced, and not upgradable.

What’s right about it?

How can u call yourself Apple, let alone any other company in 2019 while offering a 128gb hard drive.

I bought my first MacBook in 2009.

It had 128 gb.
