Apple simply chose speed over capacity.
A regular 5400 tmp Hard drive can get up to 100mb/s (read).
Wheras a SSD SATA III can go up to 550mb/s (Read)
and a PCIe based Flash storage can go up to 3GB/s (read)
This ultimately makes the computer run much much quicker. I also log having the storage space but until SSD and PCIe Flash becomes cheaper. We will have to be OK with 256 GB
