My local telephone company was Southern New England Telephone and had nothing to do with the development of operating systems. However if your view of Bell Labs is that it was "a money-losint division of your local telephone company" then I don't care what the problem is, you are part of it.
For those not in the know, when measuring memory, 1 KB=2^10 bytes, 1 MB=2^20 bytes, 1 GB=2^30 bytes. For measuring most everying else, like network speed for instance, 1 Kb = 10^3 BITS, 1KB =10^BYTES, M =10^6, G=10^6.
You can generally trust manufacturers to choose units which make their product look it's best.
Yeah, somewhere in the industry the computer people decided to redefine what k,M and G mean based on powers of 2.
Typo correction: G=10^9 (US Billion, most other's 1000 Million)

More likely, the video chip is stealing system RAM for its own use. It's extremely common in machines without a separate video card. (Even if you have one, if the on-board video isn't disabled it will still steal the RAM.)
Check YOUR facts. Prior to 1986, The Southern New England Telephone Company had been a minority holding of AT&T until February 1986, when AT&T withdrew its
23% holding. SNET then became its own company, operating a telecommunications sales division, Sonecor Systems Division, which began operations on January 1, 1983 and sold equipment in competition with AT&T before the Bell System divestiture. SNET also operated SNET America, which sold long distance services within Connecticut.
Under threats of a hostile takeover, Southern New England Telephone underwent a restructuring in 1986, creating Southern New England Telecommunications as the holding company of SNET and its related businesses.
Southern New England Telecommunications was acquired by SBC Communications in 1998.
SNET Corporation was merged into AT&T Teleholdings, formerly Ameritech, in 2006 and ceased to exist.
