RAM (and Speed)

[René L. Reingard]

Hello Ubuntu Users

some days ago i read about  a computer which maybe does not fully  
recognise the amount of RAM.
how (where) to check if Ubuntu gets (uses) all available RAM on the  
machine?

I ask this, because my machine, eventhough P3 / 1.2 GHz / 512 RAM, is  
realy slow in loading Ubuntu (much slower than Windows XP on the same  
machine).
How does it come?

thanks for any hint on this two issues.

regards

René
