I'm getting a MacBook pro running parallels and am deciding between the 8gb vs 16 gb ram. I'd like to run 3 instances of Windows 2012 and didn't know the ram requirements. This is just for learning the O/S.
You're clearly undecided, and it sounds like you can afford the 16GB option. Go for it; unlike a PC, you can't upgrade the RAM in a MacBook so err on the safe side.
