I just upgraded the RAM on my macbook from 2GB to 4GB. But when I check the activity monitor, it says that I only have 3.75 GB. Is this right?
When I had only 2GB of memory, the activity monitor also said I had 1.75 GB.
Where did the other .25 of memory go?
 
The 9400M graphics card uses shared memory (256MB, or 0.25GB) from the computers RAM for operation. That is the portion missing.
