This runs on PCs with only 512MB of memory and 100MB of free hard disk space, which is small by today's standards. In fact, any PC purchased since 2007 – the year Windows Vista came out – should have at least 2GB of memory and 100GB or more hard drive space. This is four times the memory and a thousand times the hard drive space required.
