If it were 512mb, I would expect it to read maybe 510, but I think 386 is a bit low for a 512 mb card.
Am I missing something here? Besides 128 mb? I looked in the book, and I looked at the box, and nowhere does it say how large my internal memory is supposed to be.
Btw, I love everything about my PPro. I just found this incongruity a little puzzling.

Some must belong to the Internal O/S. Another of those Marketing statements that are technicaly accurate, but not what
you can use. Sort of like a 2"x4" board. The "cut" marks are at 2"x4", what you get is 1-5/8"x3-5/8" after the saw is done.
There was a time that 2x4 was 2"x4". The old part of my 1947 built home has real 2x4's and a whole lot of
where they have to meet.
My folks first TV was 17". That was 17" across (Previous TV tubes were ROUND). Then some marketing guy figgured the diagonal gave a bigger number. Accurate. Legal.
