I had this same issue on a New Dell 410 series server, ordered 8GB and
SBS Task Manager showed 4GB, but the My Computer status showed 8GB.

Turns out the Dell shipped the dang thing in MEMORY MIRROR mode, where
4GB is used to mirror the other 4GB - nice idea, but stupid as heck
since I didn't order it that way and they never shipped them that way
before.
