Microsoft Surface for biglaw- 4GB of RAM enough?
I'm looking at getting a surface with my firm's tech reimbursement. Due to the restraints of the reimbursemnt, looking at the lower end models of the Microsoft Surface. Is 4Gb of Ram enough or should I really be getting 8gb?

It honestly depends on how much security software and other background processes the firm puts on there. The firm I summered at put so much crap on ours that even 8 wasn't really enough.

If you're using Relativity through Chrome, no amount will be enough. Both programs have memory problems. Lol. My 16 GB wasnt't enough.
