About the Product Capacity Representation Standard

About Memory Capacity Representation

The memory capacity reported in the Chrome OS is less than the actual capacity of memory.

This is because BIOS or a video adapter uses a portion of memory or claims it for further use. (E.g. For 1GB(=1,024MB) memory installed, OS(Windows, Chrome, etc.) may report the capacity as 1,022MB or less)
