Actually, I’m quite surprised that you are not getting frustrating delays and crashes with a system of that kind of spec using today’s memory-hungry Microsoft operating systems.
Many laptops now even come pre-configured with a minimum of 8GB of RAM, and I’m not talking about top of the range machines here either. Take the current generation of HP Pavilion machines, for instance. Indeed, my own Samsung machine which is 2 years old even has more RAM than that. My HP Pavilion G6 has 8GB and it’s almost reaching its third birthday.
