[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1166124] Re: Ubuntu minimum system requirements needs to be updated
This is not a bug. Please learn what is Minimum and what is Recommended Requirements. Minimum requirements: This is the minimum hardware that anyone can install Ubuntu, no matter the speed, experience, lag, or whatever. This man wants just to install Ubuntu on his computer, nothing more. Recommended Requirements: This is all about user experience and all you talk about. If you want to "change" something this is the recommended requirements, NOT the minimum ones. ** Changed in: ubuntu-website-content Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
