"Nobody needs more than 64k of memory."
A much quoted comment but often misunderstood.
No one needed more than 64k of memory at the time, and that was true they didn't need more at the time.
Adding more memory than you actually need doesn't do anything it just sits there taking up an expansion port and doing nothing. It's like having a multi-core processor and then running single core apps, there's no point.
