| 1230932 | 2011-09-14 04:44:00 | Just remember: "will run" is quite a different statement than "runs well".... In my experience Windows machines need at least twice as much RAM as declared on the box for the minimum specification requirement... 3131 |

| 1230934 | 2011-09-14 05:05:00 | the iso is 4.8GB, Not 2.8. As mentioned before, the 32-bit ISO without developer tools is 2.8GB. |

| 1230935 | 2011-09-14 05:07:00 | the iso is 4.8GB, Not 2.8. No. 3132 Keep in mind they're also targetting the ARM Tablet market, where most currently have 1GB of RAM and the nVidia Tegra2 chip. |
