The more ram the better for audio! Loading big soundfonts is easier with more ram (try loading a 3gig piano-font into 1gig of ram). Caching more audio-tracks is easier with more ram (and thus gives you more cycles available for effects)... RAM can't be substituted by anything else then RAM! (DE: Frei nach "Hubraum ist durch nichts zu ersetzen als Hubraum.") And that "ought to be enough for everybody" is a funny reference.
