8GB RAM is more used for if you are using this notebook for gaming or heavy programs that require a lot of RAM to run. You don't necessarily need 8GB in a notebook. You should look for something around the 4GB range if you are just going to use it for internet. Only people that do heavy gaming would need it.

Is more 1.03gb of ram more than 733mb of ram?

Well, mb stands more milla bytes, and gb stands for GIGA bytes. A GIGA byte is what most laptop, desktop computers have. But if you are a very weathy person you could have 100 GIGA bytes and that makes a MEGA byte. So 1 gig (GIGA byte) is bigger than a mb (Milla byte) and a kb (Killo byte). The more RAM you have on your computer makes it have more space for games, papers, and other things. But if your computer STILL doesn't run faster you would have to get a new core. The fastest core is a core i5 intel prossecer (The date of 10/18/13). So far the only ways to make your computer run faster is getting more ram, or a new prossecer. Think of more RAM on a computer as your stomache, if you eat and eat and eat or download and download and download, it takes up space in your stomach or you gigs of RAM, if you get more RAM you have more room in your stomach or RAM. And think of the prossecer as your digestive system, if you have a stronger digestive system your food will digest faster or pages will load faster. Hope it helped!:)
