Oldest PC running Windows 7 [closed]

Oldest PC running Windows 7 [closed] I run Windows 7 Ultimate (RC) on a four year on a Pentium 4, 2.8 GHz machine with 1GB. It is totally responsive, and my steady state memory usage is around 512MB.

"On The Windows Club, someone claims to have run Windows 7 on a circa-1997, 266MHz Pentium II with 96MB RAM and a 4MB video card, but it took 17 hours to install and booted in 17 minutes...

A Pentium III with 512 MB should already perform much better as claimed by NeoWin:

At Windows fan site Neowin.net,
testers have claimed success with a
700MHz Pentium III ThinkPad with 256MB
of RAM and a 600MHz Pentium III
desktop with 512MB of RAM.
