However, there are some basic clues I could give. For instance, can GRASS run on a 16-bit system? Or 8-bit? What is the minimum RAM required to launch the GRASS console?
Luís, Then let me suggest you look at the Dell website and use the specs for a mid-level desktop system. A minimum of 32-bit CPU would be one end of the spectrum, but to be realistic for a system that would be suitable for several more years, I'd go with a 64-bit system, at least 4G RAM, and 500G of hard drive (preferably SSD). Of courze, the operating system for the hardware is also important and one should remember that GRASS was developed to run on hardware running various flavors of UNIX so linux or freeBSD would maximize use of the hardware. (Disclosure: the latter is my personal opinion based on running my business on only linux and F/OSS for the past 20 years.)
