[Zope] Hardware minimum for development

[Loren Stafford]

Zope is not very resource intensive. I can't specify the _bare_ minimum
configuration, but I can tell you what I use for development and am
satisfied with:

500MHz Celeron (but I'm sure you could get by with 400MHz or less)
Windows 98
96MB Ram (I bet you could get by with less, but I wouldn't skimp in this
area)
18GB Disk (but I've only used 3GB so far, even tho I have about ten versions
of Zope installed for testing purposes)

Of course, your application may have additional requirements.

My only problem with this configuration is that I am developing a Zope
product that exhibits unexpectedly different behavior on some Linux systems,
and I can't test on Linux. I should probably use some of the extra disk
space to make a Linux partition.
