Russell, Wes, et al.:

   After I sent the message (of course!) I realized that I needed to check
the BIOS setup. Apparently, one of the memory modules was not fully seated,
so I took them both out, swapped them (which would tell me if one was bad),
and carefully re-inserted them. The system now sees all 8G.

Mea culpa!
