TechRadar is a shitty kind of site. First, their site takes 100% of CPU whenever possible, along with 1/2 a gig of memory if you leave it open for more than a few minutes, as if to prove the point of the article. They talk about technical things incorrectly, and I'm sure they'd say, "Well, we just want to appeal to regular people" instead of admitting they're not trying. Their statement that that laptop makers will get more of a discount buying in bulk isn't false, but it's not really the issue. If laptop base models came with 16 gigs, the associated memory markup will still be there, yet they suggest otherwise as if the market somehow would rather help people than make money. As far as the article goes, they discuss the symptoms of the larger problem, but not the problem itself - our apps, particularly browsers, use too much memory, and nobody is talking about ways to punish app makers and web sites that abuse this.
