So, since Fedora has existed, Anaconda's memory requirements have increased

You're being pretty absurd comparing 2003 requirements to 2012
requirements without allowing at all for hardware inflation.

You seem to be missing the increasing amount of aging netbooks, laptops and tablets.

Also you seem to be ignoring the fact of Windows XP being about to be discontinued, for which at least some users will be looking for a substitute OS, when they realize Win 8's HW requirements are too demanding for their HW or when they realize Win 8 doesn't meet their personal needs.

Some of them certainly will consider switching to Linux, but will it be Fedora? Provided this discussion, my guess is no.
