You are right that the limit for 32bit  windows is 4gb. But that is to 
run everything. So the trick they play is that you get less not more. 
The best you could hope for is an effective 3gb and change. That's what 
I get.  Still the extra 1gb plus is nice to have. Note that you must add 
memory in matched pairs and it didn't seem to me to make much sense 
getting anything less than 1gb sticks.
