Default PT 8, XP Ram Requirements
Minimun specified is 1Gig, however we all know 2G will be much better, but how about 4G? With the prices so low should I move from 2 to 4 G?

By the way, upgraded to 8.0 from 7.4 with out a hitch and 8.0 is currently running on my system great.

Windows will only recognize 3, but the extra gig certainly won't hurt anything.
They REAlly should specify 2gb as the minimum IMHO.

Yep, run 4GB and do the /3GB switch.
