However, I don't agree that there is any significant benefit to this.
While 48-bits does provide sufficient address space to do that, I think
it is a bad idea to do so just because it can be done.

What about using it to support a cluster-wide address space like some SASOS
(single address space operating systems)?

Get more RAM. If you have an application that uses a LOT of RAM, get a
LOT.

I may be wrong, but is the maximum amount of RAM that can be inserted into a
machine limited by the motherboard?

(Sorry if this goes too far from the original topic.)
