I have 16GB of RAM. Although I normally don't use more than 2GB. But as you said, it's sometimes very useful. Especially in the case of running multiple VMs. I too like the breathing room. > Also, as you might be unaware of that: you're being a bit of an ass. If you are offended that your favorite text editor uses as much RAM as an entire web browser, then shooting the messenger isn't going to help.
