I see 3.

its actually a 4gb limit, your video card takes up 896mb of that, and the rest i cant remember.

Ubuntu has a 64 bit OS also, if like to try it.

Thanks I miss-typed Server 64 bit does go to 2TB.....and (Business, Enterprise and Ultimate 64 bit) let you get all the way up to 128GB.

128GB is the limitation for the 32bit edition. The 64bit edition goes up to 2TB.

I'm going to chime in as well, just because, and say:
Hey, you should get a 64-bit OS.
