MSDE 2GB Limit

Hi
A Client has an MSDE install - checked by running @.@.version (clearly
says developer edition in the result text).
However the size of the data file is over 3GB, even allowing for empty
spaces the amount of data far exceeds 2GB. Pls explain?
The database was filled by regular insert statements.

MSDE always shows "Desktop Engine" and not "Developer Edition"!
