Also be aware that on new newer MacBooks the RAM is soldered onto the motherboard and cannot be changed. On the most recent 2016 MacBook lineup the HDD is also soldered directly onto the motherboard and cannot be changed, so if you buy the newest MacBook you're stuck with the configuration you bought until you get a new computer.

I had no Idea that the ram and HDD Is soldered to the MOBO.

Why would they do such a thing? It's a smart sales motive to force the end user to purchase a new MacBook, but If that's their Intention, It's just simply the wrong way about doing things.
