There's at least two reasons.

First, it costs money, and some older machines (like the laptop I
pensioned off just before Christmas) can't take any more memory.  I
expect to get a good five years out of any of my hardware.

Second, on my shiny new machine with a meeeelion jiggabytes of memory,
there's very little free memory cos I've taken the opportunity to run a
couple of virtual machines and a Real Database.
