managed page file less than recommended

Installed Beta 2 on a Toshiba Tecra 9100 1.7Ghz 1Gb RAM laptop with 20GB hard drive. Was looking through the system settings and the page size by default was set to be managed by windows, however i noticed that the amount of space it had currently allocated (1300MB) was less than what it was telling me it recommended (1502Mb). I find this an unsual situation based on the page file being completly managed by Windows at that time.

This is likley because you have not needed to use the max allowed? Perhaps Vista is dynamically allocating the page size.
