I fail to see how the quote "Great performance without top-notch hardware"

fits with the quote "512Mb of memory really is an absolute minimum requirement"

In pretty much every review I've seen 1 gig is a recommended minimum, it was certainly my experience that at 512 it ran like a dog, constantly swapping stuff to disk.

Top notch hardware is an ambiguous quote but I know a heck of a lot of people with 512 Meg Ram or less.

Cherokee, yes, get the disk no matter what, consider using it when the dust has settled after teh first couple of months if no SERIOUS flaws appear
