I don't know; my wife is limited to primarily these things[1], and she was always asking me why her computer was so slow; she refused to close most of the open apps or browser tabs for various reasons. I bought here an air with 16GB of RAM and all of the complaints have gone away. 1: Though s/Facebook/Pinterest/, and occasionally a non-word office app open.

> she refused to close most of the open apps or browser tabs for various reasons At some point I got in the habit of closing tabs and restarting web browsers periodically as their RAM footprint would expand until they were consuming gigabytes. I'd like to think that an 8GB machine could easily support hundreds of open browser tabs, but this may not actually be true, especially if you don't run an aggressive ad blocker.
