Up to 1.5gb for FireGL GPU memory in Windows 7 ?!

Is this right? That's insane if it's accurate. The max that can be used in XP is 512mb as far as I've seen (256gb dedicated). Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about:

Yes! Through hypermemory (256 MB dedicated, the rest from the system memory). Nothing to be worried nor happy about :)
