What is the maximum upload file size accepted by SharePoint 2010?

It is actually 2GB in SP2010 and SP2007, and this is a hard limit. However, each web application by default is set to 50MB. You can go to the General Settings of a Web Application and tweak this setting.
Each Web Application By default have 50MB for one time attachment to be uploaded. You can modify it from:
Central Admin -> Manage Application -> Select your web application -> General Setting -> Set Max Upload Size
If file size is too large then you should also update executionTimeOut
(Increase this time from IIS Setting) value and ConnectionTimeou
t (Update this time from web application web.config file) value.
As in 2007 you can specify it.
This article in technet is a quite good read, it talks about digital asset management on SharePoint 2010 and how you should plan things ahead:
