Granted, it's a bit more than a "home computer," but nor is it a Sun Workstation. And I still manage to suck up all the available RAM on a not-infrequent basis.



FWIW. I'm pretty sure that 8gigs will be something in the past just as 1MB is now--eventually. The more is available, the more progammers make greedy programs and apps that suck it right up. ;-)

My old Packard Bell ran Windows 3.1 and came with 2 MB RAM. When I upgraded to 18 MB, I thought the system had become a real powerhouse.
