I used to edit video in Avid on a Mac Pro. Multimedia usages will drink memory like water, and your system being more powerful directly implies that you get more work done. Less render time is a big one.

To that end, I can understand some of the complaints.

I'm presuming most Pro Users kick their box up to 64 GB without thinking twice about it.
