In a recent engadget article, Jon Fingas points out the following:
If you're planning to snag the new Mac mini and load it up with aftermarket memory, you may want to reconsider your strategy. Macminicolo owner Brian Stucki (among others) has discovered that the RAM in Apple's latest tiny desktop isn't upgradable, much as you'd expect with the company's laptops and the 21-inch iMac.

All the laptops I ever bought did not have soldered RAM. I'm sure more "ultrabooks" do, and almost all tablets or two-in-ones.
I'm happy as long as a laptop can take 8 GB of RAM, until maybe 2016 or universal memory appears.
