it is this kind of attitude, 'whatever, just let the system use it', that has led us to where 2 GB, and then 4 GB, and now 8 GB, all became 'no longer enough'.

it is this kind of attitude, 'whatever, just let the system use it', that has led us to where 2 GB, and then 4 GB, and now 8 GB, all became 'no longer enough'. (and apparently, 16 GB is no longer "enough" either, as the apps or the entire system still can end up grinding to a halt or just crashing, even then.) lack of accountability, lack of control, developer carelessness, lead to memory usage and minimal/comfortable specs steadily increasing.
