As many people told us, there a second part really interesting in the famous "AppleSystemInfo.strings" file.

// String used to format RAM description, when there is more than 1 TB of
RAM.
"RAMInTB" = "%.*f TB";
// String used to format RAM description, when there is more than 1 PB of
RAM.
"RAMInPB" = "%.*f PB";
// String used to format RAM description, when there is more than 1 EB of
RAM.
"RAMInEB" = "%.*f EB";

Several exa-Bytes (EB) of RAM in an Apple computer, that give us some flexibility for the future
This is maybe also the time to remind you a rumor which was mentioned last May in the Apple Roadmap :

Xstation is a high-end machine, including from 4 to 64 processors. It will have the fastest graphic card available at its release date. There will be support for massive storage and RAM capacities. The estimated price of such a monster will be between 10000 and 75000$ (maybe even more). The Xstation will be first dedicated to 3D consumers, using Maya, CAD/CAM software, and high resolution real time video

This rumor fits perfectly with the info concerning the "AppleSystemInfo.strings" file.
