Clearly. You wouldn't want it anyway as it's probably only a beta build.

Not probably... It is.

I noticed Windows 7 beta on some torrent sites. I heard Leo Laporte and Paul Thurrott talking extensively about the beta on Windows Weekly and This Week in Tech podcasts, seems interesting. This build is apparently very stable and Thurrott claims it feels like a "beta 2".

And 1GB RAM? Lol...

:confused: Pretty standard specs for a low-end laptop/netbook.

lol, wut? I've seen a $300 compaq with better specs being sold today at WALMART!

Netbooks would say ATOM Processor or something else. They are also like 1.6GHz+

Plus, won't most say Vista requires 2GB to run well? I would imagine Windows 7 is similar, given how cheap 2GB of RAM is nowadays...

Windows 7 has a smaller memory footprint than Vista. Guess I was wrong about the specs, been a while since I bought a computer.

Hmm. True.

But yeah, I can buy a 2GB stick of memory from newegg for $20...or cheaper.
