The overwhelming number of modern "32-bit" systems are actually 36-bit in address space. You have to turn on appropriate options to use that mode, of course. For Windows that means running a server edition. For Linux that means turning on certain kernel options when compiling (or using a "server" kernel for those distros that support this). I am, for example, happily using my full 4GB on a 32-bit version of Ubuntu.
