Lower memory requirement from 250 MB to 230 MB
I'd recomend that the memory requirement be lowered slightly so that users with minimum RAM and on-board graphic cards can participate.

A system with 250 MB of RAM (standard office) and an on-board graphic card using the minimum amount (16 MB) will have approximately 239 MB visible to the client, thus insufficient to do anything.

Hello DustWolf,
Viktors has said that there will be a future project with lower requirements. Until then, there are a number of BOINC projects like SIMAP ( http://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php ) that do not need much RAM.
