I'm just saying that using Revit requires a LOT of RAM. In a PC, you need 64bit OS to go over 3Gb and you definitely need more than 3Gb to do a real project with Revit. If you can use 8Gb on the Transformer or whatever it is, then that is fine.

Neil:
My Transformer is WiFi-only. I bought it and the keyboard dock online at NewEgg. My unlimited phone contract is with Verizon Wireless and my phone is rooted. I'm pretty adventurous for a old fart.
Bill:
Revit is limited by the PC, not by the Transformer. It runs on Android Honeycomb 3.1, not Windows.
