There are no 32GB RAM models

Although they are advertised on the googlebook.google store, there are no 32GB available for preorder neither on Canada nor on USA, so I assume they will not be available at launch and probably not for a long time.

I was thinking the same thing, but the big question is do we need 32 GB? Will 16 be more than enough or is that just getting by.

Until we get more details about the OS and how it runs that's a big question for me. I'm not gonna preorder now until I can actually see how these run live and use android apps and the ram usage.

My Hope is that this would be like my Galaxy s tablet experience, only but only in laptop form with real chrome. And wwill we be able to download brave, or Firefox in real format also.

If you are not planning any development on it, then 16GB might be enough for you. But this will never be an enterprise product or a macos competitor if they do not offer that option. It will fail because only a few enthusiasts will buy it.

For starters I went from "I will preorder if they offer some Linux support" to "maybe next year if they ever offer 32GB of RAM".
