No.. I am not. Basically, What I did not realize that mail did not go
throught completely.

That means we need 160 GB Ram :-)

If we have to run one of the build and deployment environment of live CD.

Or if want to do a LOT of stuff on high computing. Then I do not think that
you can eventually do everything off normal 2 - 4 GB Ram.

It was not a criticism, its kind of realization that whats happening in
other world. Google already has almost everything in Ram.
