According to Bink, The software formerly known as Eiger requires at least minimum of 611MB of free hard drive space, though for some applications and systems, it may require nearly twice that. It calls for a 233MHz processor, though 300MHz is recommended. Finally, it demands 64MB of RAM, though 256 MB of RAM is recommended.
