I agree, but also can't blame them.
It's a rather nice way to do it. People already backing would have settled for less and get a nice "surprise" while a lot of others (who am I kidding: me included) are more likely to join in. I would not have wanted it with 4GB of RAM, but this makes it a bit more interesting – a promotion from "toy" to "toy that could possibly get some work done".
