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.

My 4 gig Vista system here reports 3.53 gigs out of the 4 gig total.

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.
