> understand that the 0xE0000000 remapping doesn't work.  Is it

OK, time for a "basic" question.  What is "0xE0000000 remapping"? 
According to my calculations, 0xE0000000 = 3.5 gigabytes, which is .5
gigabytes less than the 32-bit max.  Are all addresses above 0xE0000000
always remapped?  If so, why?  Is this regardless of the amount of physical
RAM available?  Thanks!!
