(In fact, they likely made it worse.) That claim is dead wrong, at least for graphical install of the default Gnome desktop from full install DVD or USB stick. I have installed fedora-17-i386 that way successfully using 383MB of RAM [1], and fedora-18-i386 using 511MB of RAM [2]. I believe that fedora-18 can be installed using less RAM, but 511MB was what I tested. I believe that the enforced minimum for fedora-15 and fedora-16 was 768MB RAM, which is considerably larger than my successes with fedora-17 and fedora-18. I consider that you owe Anaconda a public apology. You might be able to squirm out of it if you document your experiments meticulously, including measurements.
