RAM use vs total RAM available

I have recently upgraded my computer and I now have 2 GBytes of memory. I also use Norton SystemWorks and can monitor such things as RAM use. Therein lies the "problem". I rarely see memory use greater than 500 kB? No matter how much software I open up. So here are my questions - 1) Can Win2k access more than 640 kB of memory? 2) If "yes" how? If "no" why did I buy the extra RAM? 3) Is my Swap file doing all the work- could it be too large? Thanks in advance. Rick
