Or 16GB in my laptop ;-)  Though its really only sensible to use ~50% for 
the VM, which brings us back to the 4GB limit on a 8GB machine.

The 64-bit virtual machine should then also come with more ram & cpus 
configured, and require hardware virtualisation. In other words, be only 
suitable for a modern computer.
