Yeah, I don't think the video ram actually takes up much system ram
footprint. The video ram is slid through the system ram footprint, in
small chunks, through a fixed-size graphics aperture.

As for why I got 4GB, I simply got it because it was on sale. :-)

I put in Ubuntu as my 64-bit OS, and I'm occasionally dual-booting
into it.
