    im running vista business as shipped, i have now 3gb of ram, will it benefit me if i added another 1 gb of ram?
    according to some sites, 32 bit vista can only recognize 3gb, will there be any improvement in performance if i installed 4gb? sony support claims i shd put 4gb cos the santa rosa supports.

    4gb will not be recognised by a 32bit OS, so no it wont benefit you. there may be a slight improvement of performance but thats just isnt worth it.
