[Sugar-devel] Hardware Requirements

I want to add a paragraph to the wiki on hardware requirements for SoaS.

>From http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora
For Fedora 16 I see:
	A 400MHz or faster processor
	At least 768 MB memory (RAM), 1 GB recommended for best performance.

Is it relevant to quote this for SoaS?

I found SoaS would fit on a 1GB stick but I quickly wasted the free
space. I would recommend a 2GB stick as a good working minimum for a
newcomer, any comments?

Is the best advice to a newcomer to install the latest version of SoaS?
	I am thinking, is there any benefit in any older version, on an older
machine?

My work in progress is here

My only qualification for undertaking this is that I am getting started
myself, so if anyone has anything to add or correct I would appreciate
it.
Thanks,
Iain
