I've heard it will run on a single core machine with 1GB Ram, not sure how successfully, although saying that some netbooks are coming with Windows 7 these days.On Sat, Mar 20, 2010 at 06:01:59PM +0000, Dan Dart wrote:Just out of interest what are the minimum realistic specs for a machinerunning Windows7 in an office environment ie - Open email windows - Open browser - Open office (say word)
I'd probably say a Pentium 4 around 3Ghz with 2GB Ram to run it comfortably, or maybe a slower dual core CPU again with probably around 2GB ish.
Can't say I've tried it on a low spec machine, the wife's PC is a Pentium Dual Core running at 2.9Ghz with 4GB Ram (although only 3.25GB usable due to her running the 32-Bit version) and it runs fairly well, much better than Vista anyway.
