This to be honest was a shock for me as all reports were looking at 4Gb RAM. With regards to MS, we all assume they already have 8GB DDR3 RAM setup for the 720. But isn't it rumoured that 2-3Gb of that is earmarked for the OS, which is rumoured to be a version of Windows 8. Also if MS was to try and up the specs of their RAM amount, surely they are limited to what they can fit on the board...assuming there are only 2 slots for RAM....so it would surely need to be 8GB or 16GB?

Slots? What? There won't be "slots" for RAM, the chips be directly onboard...
