Right, some apps may be compiled in such a fashion where they can
utilize a 3gb application address space if a 32-bit os is booted with
the /3gb switch, but of course they need to be specially compiled to do
so, otherwise 2gb is all you can get in application space. 64-bit is
really a nice change. Is PS available in a 64-bit version yet?

You can install 4G, but XP won't see more than ... 3.2G? ... of it.
Even on 64 bit XP/Vista, Photoshop CS3 won't use more than 4G for
images, and 2G for cache.
