it isn't much different from when we went from Windows 3.1 / 3.11 to XP. The cutoff at that point was about 400mhz, which at the time put a ton of PCs into the junk pile.

You're right but back then processors technology was making huge leaps in performance and today the jumps seem much smaller. Before you couldn't really run XP on the minimum required hardware because it would have been way too slow for human acceptance.

Maybe they learned from that and the minimum requirement actually performs well or maybe it will be a dog. Only time will tell.
