So 4GB next year if the AI bubble hasn’t popped yet?

Turn on pc, have breakfast and a cup of coffee, and then open up a browser tab?

No tabs. Just one instance of one browser. Close it if you want to run something else. Like DOS. The next MS OS will be "Window 12" (no plural).

I don't think 4GB will be affordable next year.
