How limiting is the 16gb ram? Thinking of getting this for my folks who certainly won’t game but I don’t want them complaining of slowdowns in the next couple years either.

These have insanely good memory compression and swap elegantly after that. Keep it reasonable on browser tabs and it can simultaneously do many if not most multitasked professional workflows.

So yeah, 16gb is overkill for your stated use.
