Re: F15 - 640MB RAM Requirement Issue

[Freak Trick <trickfreak@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

It does not seem that the slow speed is due to high load on F15 servers, I guess it is a problem with the beta. I have got decent processor and I don't think simultaneously downloading and processing would be an issue.

I guess, I will try with presto and see how it can help. But, I hope that further installers do not discontinue the installations when minimum requirements are not met.
