It makes sense for them to up the RAM considering this new unit is supposed to be pushing a lot of audio. Perhaps the increase was because they realized the lower RAM they started with wasn't enough horsepower to pull the carriage..., and I would assume problems may have come up regarding OS stability if the RAM was underpowered.
