My first 486 had 1M of memory because I could not afford more and I
knew I could easily upgrade memory when I had more money. But I
believe the 486 had a 32bit address bus so it could theoretically
support 2GB of memory but of coarse at $50,000 per MB not many people
where building systems to support that much memory. I had at least one
486 with 64MB of memory.

Also I remember seeing like a 32way mainframe-ish system based on
486s, with 2GB of memory on ebay once.
