Hi Glenn,
         I agree Glenn, but IIRC, on some of my old motherboards
that reported only 640k there was really 1mb of ram chips installed.
If you checked such a board with a utility such as Check-It, then
the report showed UMB. 
      I remember this because I always wanted to use that memory
but I didn't know how back then. It always seemed wasted to me.
