Welcome to iMore! They're both great computers. What are the price differences? What are you going to be doing with it? You can always upgrade RAM pretty easily in the future if you feel the need to.

I recall hearing (Not sure if is was the iMore show or the Talk show) that the 21.5 doesn't have upgradable memory. If that's the case you should go for 16GB if you can afford it.
