Yes, and it's becoming worse for each year. Ultrabooks has at best 8 GB but 4 GB is the norm (at least last time I looked). And if you look at Surface Pro etc.

Yes, and it's becoming worse for each year. Ultrabooks has at best 8 GB but 4 GB is the norm (at least last time I looked). And if you look at Surface Pro etc. 4 GB is the norm and 2 GB is mainstream. I might be 6 months out of date or something but regardless the current state is quite appalling. I'm writing this on a computer from 2008, and it has 8 GB of ram (and I've never updated it, I would have done it if the motherboard supported more)...
