We see lots of messages on many forums related to people wondering why their
system does not show their full 4,0 GO. I have 4 GO on both my desktop and
laptop. It showed 3,325 GO on the desktop before I upgraded to SP1 RC. Now it
shows 4,0. Same thing happenned when I upgraded to 4 GO to my laptop. Since
SP1 RC was already installed, it showed 4 GO right off he bat.
I guess it only shows the total memory but still cannot use it since the
physical limitations are still there. Or are they? Of course I am using Vista
Business on both systems, x32 version .

Although I haven't seen SP1 RC1 yet, I believe that that's correct.
The reporting has changed, but the amount that's usable hasn't.

MS did it to quell the gripes about 4gb not showing. So now it shows in
Windows but it still can't all be used by Windows.
