Probably not that specific, but they have to calculate an average OS with average software running on it, and for a Windows 7 + basic software, the hardware needs are not much different. > Btw, I used XP as well for many years.

Corporate network, and lots of USB sticks and USB HDDs moving around. Virus scanner is an absolute must have... > My XP boxes all had 1GB or > 2GB or ram. XP + 2GB + VS6 worked great.

I've seen it hogging 1GB of RAM while compiling an medium sized project, 3-4Mb zipped sources. VS08 also takes its part, but VS10 takes more, especially if intellisense and compiler run in parallel. The new IDE is worth it however. Cheers, Udo _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
