There was a really good article about 32 bit operating systems, how much of the 4 gigs it takes up, and then reallocating the other 2 gigs to apps. Maybe not exactly, but pretty much along those lines. Found it when doing some research for a solution to my supreme commander crashing once it hit 2 ...

Re:

64-bit is really pointless on the desktop. that being said, vista isn't really there yet, 32 or 64-bit. Well, in a 32 bit environment, a program can only address two gigs of memory. Under a 64 bit environment, it can access much more. My reason for choosing 64 was primarily this reason. Photo ...

Really starting to regret going vista 64.

To be honest, really starting to regret going to vista regardless of whether it was 32 or 64 bit.

I'm an old player of Total Annihilation, so Supreme Commander was an obvious choice for me. I don't play multiplayer, always play skirmish, but I'm having issues with the game maxing out on the memory on my system and then crashing, so I've been playing it a bit less throughout the past weeks.
