Right with 4G Vista gets you little or nothing. Out of the 4G you will get like 3.2 showing in taskmanager as the video ram also takes up address space.

I get 3.6G with win2K cause I use a motherboard with .5G "vista ready boost flash ram".

Its this board cept with the ready boost feature, guess they don't even make them anymore lolzors:

On my non main computers I just went to 3 gig and see the same 2.6G in taskmanager that I see with 4G ...
