    Just because you can get away with 8 does not mean you should. Go google around and find just how cheap an additional 8 gb of laptop RAM is these days.

      Just because you can buy 64GB of RAM doesn’t mean you need it. Laptops these days are more powerful than supercomputers used to be. If you just spend a little time tuning your applications you barely need any RAM.
