Intensive database/video/rendering stuff, and not just on servers.

For users whose computers run Fisher Price apps like IE and use just one
virtual desktop (or one task at a time), not much RAM will be needed.

Memory limitations impact development and imperil 'innovation'. Come to
consider how little Windows has improved in 12 years. Without ISVs, Windows
would be years behind its competition in every way.
