Wait an X86 processor?

this would mean the ram is likely a max of 2GB

It can have 4gb including the videocard memory in an X86 system. And it would surprise me if they put that much in it.

Ugh...

 

ALL x86 processors on the market today are x86-64 which support 4 EXObytes of RAM. EXOBYTES.

Not true Most Recent AMD64, and Intel64 can only address 256 terabytes.  A couple of years ago it was like 1 terabyte.

If the article referred to X86 he probably referred to the system OS or something being 32-bit. Or it's reported incorrectly, and should have reported as X64, X86-64, or something else.

And anyways X64 can theoretically address 16 EXAbytes
