If you haven't upgraded to a 64-bit operating system, you might want to
soon.

Anyone with more than 4GB of RAM has definitely already done so.

untrue. PAI is still a thing.

Is that anything like PAE? Something that Windows doesn't really support
(supposedly it does, but not for increased RAM).

A real 64-bit OS should still be better.

I used to have a system with 8GB and Windows XP (32-bit). It had some
software to use the extra RAM is a disk. That's one place where it makes
sense to use a software RAMdisk for the swap file. I suppose I'd still
be using it if it hadn't died last summer. I used 64-bit (Win 7) on the
new one.
