My xp pro machine reports I have 3.5 gigs of memory and basicly while
running I have 2.7 gigs free.

not on 32 bit systems this is a hardware limitation and the only way to get
past it is going to a 64 bit os.  32 bits only can handle a max of 4 gigs of
addressing.

I'm pretty positive that isn't true. I'm sure XP recognised up to 4GB and I
could be wrong but doesn't Vista recognise something incredible like 1
terrabyte instead.

Hello Listers,
I talked with a sales rep from gateway thursday, and he told me vista only
sees memory up to 3 gigabytes.  Is this true?
Thanks.
