1024 MB RAM viewed as 768

[Umarzuki Mochlis]

Is it normal for a Linux distro to view 1024 MB RAM as 768 or it's my
hardware

umarz...@eden:~$ free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:           749        741          8          0         11        226
-/+ buffers/cache:        502        246
Swap:         2196          0       2196

I'm using Lenny AMD64 on CQ40-115AU
