Minimum Requirements for Longhorn
Xeen:
According to this, the minimum requirements for Longhorn could possibly be 3Ghz. Is it just me or is that just a little bit fucking insane?
madluther:
As far as I'm concerned the higher the requirements the better, hardware manufacturers will push clock speeds and memory bandwidth thru the roof trying to keep up with M$'s bloat. The more of these systems they make the cheaper they get. Install linux/FreeBSD etc on such a machine and you have a rocketship. Seems to me like a win / win situation for non M$ users. :D
WMD:
I'm thinking about 1Ghz and 512MB ram for Longhorn.
And this guy (a clear Windoze fan) seems happy about 3Ghz not being good enough. Wtf? :confused:
restin256:
I read that it was something like 800MHz.
skyman8081:
I'M SURE 3Ghz is insane, if loghorn was out today.
it comes out in 2006/2007
processor speeds be way more that 3 Ghz then
*nix wont matter it runs on anything, the hardware that longhorn runs would make a damn fine server running freebsd.
