Don't bother with more than 4G of ram. 32bit XP and 32bit Vista won't see or use anything more than 4Gb.

But you should get your 4Gb in two 2Gb 'sticks'. That will leave you expansion room for more memory in case you go with a 64 bit OS in the future.

Any cpu you buy today will be 32 and 64 bit capable so no worries there.
