Actually the opposite is true for a basic spec. like RAM. People may not understand CPU/GPU naming conventions. BUT they understand something simple like 16>8.

They also understand their "old slow" PC probably had 8gb and they want to UPGRADE so when they see this "new" mac with same amount of ram they immediately think slow whether it is or not...
