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.
