I have a ThinkPad T61, a laptop from 2007, with only 4 GB of RAM. I can open Firefox with 10 tabs, including a Youtube video at 480p, and still have 1GB of RAM left. Yet people act like 8GB is unusable these days.

Is it windows or Linux based?

10 tabs and a single video playing at 480p is usable to you? ._.

Firefox yeah I could see that. If you were running Chromium you'd be having some trouble.

Personally 8gb is more comfortable, but if 4gb works for you, then who am I to tell you anything different?

I hope that you have an SSD in there at least!
