The rounding instruction does not make much sense. If a machine has not exactly one of the above amounts, the amount of RAM is almost certainly exactly in the middle between two of these values.

It's just a means of approximation.

Most of Symbolic's development is done on two machines: a dual core with 2 GB and a quad core with 1 GB. So maybe I should have included a choice for a 3 core, 1.5 GB box.
