I was reading that it can handle 4 GB but only show 3.2-3.5 due to the loading of the on board PCi devices and other cards that use the memory address'?

Right from MS site
Physical Memory Limits: Windows XP

The following table specifies the limits on physical memory for Windows XP.
Version........ Limit in 32-bit Windows........ Limit in 64-bit Windows
Windows XP......4 GB.............................. 128 GB
Windows XP Starter Edition.... 256 MB.........Not applicable


I'm also preparing for Vista down the road, as it will become a necessity soon enough for most/many new games by 2008 anyways..

I run 4 gb of memory in Vista and ran the same 4gb in XP pro. The memory in bios showed 4gb but Windows reported it as 2 gb although it will use the extra memory (up to 4gb, anything more is not a good idea) in certain instances. When I was running 64bit Vista it showed all 4gb of memory. I am really enjoying Vista with its cool new features and Office 2007 rocks!
