Lo peeps... need a bit of help here.. what do you boffins think wouold be the recommended, not minimum spec for running Fista in an Office environment, i.e. running micro$oft Office and AutoCAD, plus any other business type package.

Looked up on the MS site and to be frank i think they were being a little optomistic in thinking that this spec would work:

Windows Fista Premium Ready PC Specifications (Recommended Requirements):

* 1 GHz 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor

* 1 GB of system memory

# A graphics processor that runs Windows Aero (DirectX 9 class graphics processor that supports WDDM Driver, Pixel Shader 2.0 in hardware and 32 bits per pixel with big enough graphics memory)

# 128 MB of graphics memory

# 40 GB of hard drive capacity with 15 GB free space

# DVD-ROM Drive

# Audio output capability

# Internet access capability

What do you think???

I'm running:

AMD 3700+ processor
2.5GB RAM
X1800GTO
500GB storage

Seems ok, it whinges a bit when I'm running Supreme Commander but that's about it, I assume that's down to running it on highest settings all the time...

Those specs will definitely run Fista, but running Aero Glass might not be that great of an idea.
