Q? was

I am developing a small to medium sized application and some of the perspective users and beta testers keep asking me things like "What are the minimum requirements of this program?" I honestly I have no idea how to answer that question. To be honest I have searched Google and have yet to find a clear cut method for determining the system requirements of software that we make. A fellow programmer of mine suggested just making something up, although I would like to avoid "B.S.ing" my way to the end of my project.

If it helps in any way I am writing the program in C# using VS08.

Any suggestions?

My Answear:
For memory, look at how much RAM it uses in the task manager. For processor speed, you'll need to estimate based on CPU % and what you have. Also, you'll need .NET installed with its minimum requirements.
