Well then you are doing good.  The technote says that you will get less than
half.  And so far with my testing that is the highest the result you just
posted.  The fact is tell such time as vista sp1 comes out should be in q1
of this year I would not bother to get an extra gb.  And no I am not playing
with sp1 rc1.  My system is running way to stable to want to deal with that.

Actually it will see up to aproximately 3.6 gigs depending on how your
hardware is mapping out memory for devices.  My 4 gig Vista system here
reports 3.53 gigs out of the 4 gig total.

This is in fact true.  All 32 bit operating systems will handle up to 3 gb
of ram.  This is a limitation of the 32 bit implementation.  The 64 bit
operating systems do not have this issue.

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.
