More than 3, actually ;)

If you have 4+ GB or RAM in a 32-bit OS, it'll only be able to use 3GB of that.

AFAIK, the only difference between Premium and Ultimate is stuff like DreamScene (animated wallpaper) and a couple "exclusive games" like Texas Hold 'Em.

Doesn't Ultimate come with the option of 32 Bit and 64 Bit?. Please correct me if I'm wrong because I'm looking into Windows Vista Ultimate64 Bit when I build my new PC at the end of the year.

*allows you to use more than 4 gigs of ram

its all about how the processor stores and reads information. technical stuff.
what you need to know is that while 64 bit is hip and NOW, its not widely supported and you may run into incompatibilities with some of your older programs. i personally hav both disks for home premium. the retail update allows you to send in $10 and get the 64bit disk too. but im waiting to use it.

home premiums what you want. ultimate has a bunch more crap you wont use.

Just be careful with it, there have been some driver issues and such with it.
