> Am I correct to understand that anything more than 3GB of RAM is
wasted unless you're running Vista?

Generally speaking, yes, with almost all of the Windows XP versions
(i.e., Windows XP 64-bit, of course!). You would need Vista 64-bit to
get more than 4GB.

Also, note that, in many cases, there are BIOS (and other uses) of that
memory space as well (for example, video card memory) in that fourth gig
of address space.

Note that there are *other* OS's (64-bit Solaris, etc.) that can run on
these systems and use more memory than 4GB.
