No responses to this?  I was really interested in what people had to say.  I'm 
gonna upgrade from 1gig to 3 this summer, 4 if I'm lucky and would like to be 
able to use all of it.  I remember reading that with my motherboard Windows 
would only let me use 3.5gigs out of 4, but 2 is incredible.  Thanks.
