I had no idea you could get 512gb of ram. That’s ludicrous.

With Apple's notoriously exploitive RAM upgrade pricing, I don't believe for a second that they're not still making a profit with that pricing.
Edit:
512GB was $4,000 when it was available.
512... GB? GET THEM!!!!!
But ... it's Apple. Apple product buyers are used to being gouged out the arse for money.
I'll bet this option just wasn't selling and so Apple quietly discontinued it.
The most ram I’ve ever had in any computer is 16gb, but I just make documents and do minor photo editing. Would YouTubers and video editors be the kind of folk to make use of 512gb? Seems like an insane number.
