Originally posted by Kitten Yiffer4GB of addressable memory all programs can't exceed no more than 4GB of active memory since 32-bit systems can only address 2^32 bytes. The amount of RAM+VM is equal to RAM+the amount of free space on the drive where the swap file is found |

Well, Xkeeper took it with a literal definition... text editors would just show the same result on the different platforms (or a text editor that supports both line break types not native to their platform).  neo's right, it's just addressable memory. Virtual memory included. Windows 2000 Server, AdvServer, and Datacenter Server all increase the limits that 2000 Pro have (Pro: 2 CPUs, 4GB of RAM). I'm not sure about the specifics at the moment. WinXP Pro is equivalent of 2000 Pro; WinXP Home limits you to one CPU. Windows Server 2003 probably has the same limits as the Win2k counterparts (though the names are different ). |

Theoretically, you should be able to have more (like 2^32 times more  ) with a 64-bit CPU, but I'm not sure if Windows supports it. A program using 4GB of RAM is a pretty crazy idea for now anyway.  And Notepad can open large files, yes, but have you ever tried it? It takes forever and runs really slow. |

| with a 64-bit CPU you do have 2^64 of addressable space. The publically released version of windows doesn't take advantage of the 64-bit processor if you have one. However, Microsoft still has a beta 64-bit version of windows floating around. If you want to take full advantage of a 64-bit, get a G5 Mac |

| There was a Windows 2000 Advanced Server Limited Edition once. It was a port to the Alpha, 64-bit processor. If you read around, you probably'll just find stuff that says development for the Alpha was discountinued, but this was the exception. The addressable memory does not depend on the processor, but other stuff... I know that it's possible to have up to 64 GB of RAM in an x86 motherboard. Linux supports it (by default, only 4GB), and as mentioned earlier, the higher edition Windows' support it. |
