Most new computers come with 6gb to 8gb of ram now, so 2gb sounds really low.

Bahaha, no they don't. They don't at all. Windows XP 32 bit doesn't even recognize 4 GB of RAM and above...

Most new retail computers come with 2-3 GB of ram standard.

 

I'm looking at a Best Buy flyer and a Future shop flyer right now and they have computers with 5gb, 6gb and 8gb of ram.
