Steve,
When I installed Delphi 1.0, I did so on both my Pentium 8Meg RAM machine and
my 386SX 6Meg RAM machine and it ran on both. Although I wouldn't make a
strong recommendation for 6Meg and 386SX, it is useable. Still, a 486DX 66
and 8Meg should be just fine for most D1.0 developers. D2.0 really doesn't
like it less than 12Meg RAM and I've seen the 486 machines with Windows
95-pitiful! So, for D2.0, I'd recommend the 16Meg/Pentium 75MHz combination
as the 'best' cheap value system for developers.
