I would say that anyone that close to 2GB should switch.

I can tell you've never spent much time at a cube farm! It is too bad that my corporate, government, and university customers can't just ask for and receive a new computer whenever they want one. But it doesn't work that way.

For a program you are distributing to others, it seems reasonable
for those users to switch if that last 300MB means that much.

The loss of 300 MB out of 2 GB is no great deal. The whole problem is that I don't have any way to know for sure it'll be 300 MB, and not 500 MB or a GB on some other system or machine. How much of a buffer do I need to leave?
