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?

Not really, considering These (CAD) prices.

At home I am running 2K on a 166 with 32M RAM. It's slow, but it never crashes.

Also runs AutoCAD 2004.

On my dell optiplex I can run 2k with crashes.  Its a p1 166 with 64 mb ram.  Slow as shit!

I've tried putting winXP and 2in2k3 on ity with no success.  The hardware was simply not powerful enough.  I have ran Linux with even older machnies (p75) and they work great.

I'll persnoaly think a p4 @1ghz and 128mb ram is enough for anybody.  There is no reason to buy a machnine that needs even more expensive and more powerful hardware just to do the same thing and get the same kind of results with more vouyer power given to M$ corps.

Crossover office runs M$ Office fine!

Love games for linux.  But I'm not a hard core gamer so I don't play often
