| Sure you can install it, but... You can even install W7 on CPU P2 133 Mhz, RAM 80MB and 6,3GB HDD, 1MB vram, but it takes at least 15mins to power on.

I've installed it on a system with significantly worse specs and it runs fine. You might not be able to use Aero, however.

I installed it on my dad's old computer and it works fine.
P4 2.4gHz.
512MB RAM
And some integrated graphics card from 6 years ago.
I'm not sure if he can use Aero, but he tells me that everything else is great, and he says it's faster than XP.
He rarely uses computers so he might be exaggerating, but who knows.
