MS touts 'Vista Capable PCs'

It’s official: the minimal system requirements for Vista-capable PCs (to enable all the eye-candy and performce) have arrived:

  • An 800 Mhz processor,

  • 512MB of RAM,

  • 20GB Hard Drive with 15GB of free space,

  • 128MB Memory on Graphics Card.


I guess it’s quite clear that many will need at least a new graphics card and some additional RAM, because the recommended requirements go as follows:

  • 2-2.8 Ghz processor,

  • 1GB of RAM,

  • 40GB Hard Drive,

  • 256MB Memory on Graphics Card.


Maybe it'd be wisest to just get Vista along with a new computer or install it on a PC that's no older than a year (max!).
