Really?
The only system on which I've >3Gb of ram and a 32bit OS is my Windows
laptop, and that reports 3.5Gb of the ~4Gb that's in there. I've no idea
how to get a less-rounded number for it out of Windows.
That's a design issue (I think) specific to Windows. Has to do with
the decision to map video card RAM into regular address space
(even on machines with discreet video cards).
