4GB here...
But you have to consider that the average suck-o visitor tends to have better computer than your average facebook-fan

i have 8 gigs of ram. I was planning on upgrading from win 7 32 bit to 64 bit but never got around to it. I built the machine with financial aid money so i went all out with it.

well I have 3 gigs on my laptop, and Im almost satisfied with these.
I don't use heavy applications (net, chatting, word processing...) photo shop might be the most demanding of my laptop's rams. If I ever go into 3D modeling (blender) I might upgrade to higher gigs.

I have 6 GB in my server and 4 GB in the "regular" workstation, the others machines have less than 4 GB so not worth mentioning.
