Yes you are all correct. Ram cost nothing today, even though it might be bouncing back to their normal margin. DDR2 Ram are relatively cheap. Not to mention DDR3 will bring us double or more memory capacity.
Most people could afford 4GB Ram on their Desktop today. With 8GB Ram for Prosumers. At todays price i reckon ALL systems, even entry level should have 2GB Ram Standard. But the sad thing is Windows XP / Vista is still 32Bit. It doesn't recognize more then 3.x GB of Ram. 64Bit version is still premature and hardly OEM are adopting it. Hardware makers have yet to full jump on broad for 64 bit drivers.
