Is your RAM then maxed out at 3GB? (ie, unless you were to switch over to 64bit Win7?)
Apart from the fact that you can't run 64bit Win7 because you need to support particular applications, the x61s otherwise generally supports 64bit Win7? If you were running 64bit Win7, could the X61s support, say, 8GB?
