I have 1GB. (And I get by just fine.)

The discussion wasn't about physical memory, but address space. Due to the discussed limitation, you won't be able to fill all of that 1 GB with small VirtualAlloc'd objects because you'll run out of address space much earlier before you run out of memory. Having more address space than physical memory can thus sometimes be beneficial (also e.g. for virtual memory).
