That depends on whether you are Greece (call it gyros) or Turkish (call it kebap) or whether you want to risk a fight (calling it gyros in front of Turkish people or vice versa).
If you put microphones into the table, the audio will be horrible, catching up any surface acoustic waves from any noise on the table. Like if someone touches the table anywhere, this will be caught by the microphone. If someone puts down a hard item to the table anywhere (e.g. a pen, fingertips with fingernails, smartphone) you won't be able to hear anyone in the room through microphones due to the transient noise.
More "conservative" in terms of preserving the planet's resources.
You don't need Gigabytes of RAM for almost any consumer application, as long as the programming team was interested/incentivized to write quality software.
Innovation is orthogonal to code size. None of the software most modern computers are running cannot be solved on 10 year old computers. It's just the question whether the team creating your software is plugging together gigantic pieces of bloatware or whether they actually develop a solution to a real problem.
