I forgot to mention. If you do photo editing, 3gb of memory is a big 
advantage. I bought a machine with one and installed the other two. With 
Windoze, 4gb mostly wastes 1gb and 3gb is optimum, but the sellers 
package either 2 or 4gb. Silly gits.

You need to change some boot setting, which escapes me at the moment, 
but which I posted before, to access the extra 1gb. It doubled the 
amount of memory PS has available to it for me. A BIG advantage.
