The minimum hardware requirements for &quot;enjoyable&quot; internet surfing are:<br />
14.4 modem<br />
MacOS 7.5.x (7.5.5 recommended) with Open Transport 1.1.2 and QuickTime 2.5<br />
20+ Megs of Physical RAM (LC's are limited to 10 MB)<br />
<br />
Setting up a machine with less than this will cause the user to purchase a better Mac sooner, since the internet experience will not be nearly as much fun due to frequent crashes and/or error messages. If all you want is email and/or irc, the LC is fine. The general rule of thumb is, more RAM equals more fun.<br />
