I recently did a stage 1 install on a Dell Latitude 233MHz w/ 64MB of RAM and 4GB of disk.
You *will* want to use distcc if at all possible. Also, if you have a distfiles directory you can share, that will cut the build time (fewer downloads). Now that it is done, it runs really nice considering the hardware...
