I don't think it's useful to leave the minimum system requirement as it is. While it is academically true that one can run linux with speakup on a 386 or 486 system, doing so is a little bit more dificult than our blithe comments suggest. It seems to me that most people here on out will use some of the canned installation distributions, Debian, Slack, Redhat, where speakup is already compiled in. How well do these support installations on older chips with only a few hundred megabytes of hard disk space? If they do that well--never mind this post. But, if not, let's not steer people wrong. Suggestion: Installation on older computers is not advised for people who've never installed linux before. It's just harder, much harder, to get it working. For best results, especially if you want to listen to Real Audio and mp3s, you should use a Pentium system with a hard disk that has several gigabytes of space.
