how much flash rom do i have??



this may seem a really dumb question, but can you answer it?
on my actual ti89 (HW version 2.00, AMS ver 2.03), the mem screen says i have
about 370kb of flashrom free, and 316kb of flashapp installed, with about 31kb
in archived variables.

on VTI, running a ti89 (HW version 2.00, AMS ver 2.05), the mem screen says
pretty much that same things - 645kb flash rom free, 0 kb flashapps.

But the manual which came with my ti89 (which seems to be written for a ti89
with AMS ver 1.00 and no mentioned hardware version), says (on page ix) that the
ti89 has "about 188K of user available RAM....[and]...about 384K of user data
archive". No mention of flash ROM, although the manual does have the big FLASH
logo on it. And the MEM screens in the manual don't mention "Flash ROM Free",
only "Arhcive Free".
So what happened? Do the different hardware versions actually have different
amounts of RAM and ROM?
and i'm busy downloading street fighter 2, and can't help noticing that the zip
file is over a meg...wonder how i'll squeeze that into a ti...
