At the last IRC meeting (on Saturday, October 31) we talked about the minimum hardware requirements for openSUSE: http://www.novell.com/en-us/products/opensuse/sysreqs.html We agreed that the current reqs are not that appropriate anymore. Refilwe Seete had the idea of splitting the definitions into different parts like "GUI-based" and "CLI-based" requirements. That's basically a very good idea but we have to keep in mind that GUI shouldn't be generalized because IceWM or LXDE are not as consumptive as KDE4 or GNOME. And, of course, we shouldn't blow up the definition too much because of the needed clarity. There could be a basic overview, just splitted into the mentioned two base parts and a more detailed view for advanced users. Another chance would be to ask the community via the forums about their hardware experiences. Finally we thought that it would be a good idea to bring the discussion to this mailing list to get more opinions and proposals. What do you think about this topic? Any suggestions? Thomas
