The specified minimum system requirements do not represent reality.
According to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements Ubuntu desktop needs :
* 700 MHz processor (about Intel Celeron or better)
* 512 MiB RAM (system memory)
* 5 GB of hard-drive space (or USB stick, memory card or external drive but see LiveCD for an alternative approach)
* VGA capable of 1024x768 screen resolution
With the latest technologies introduced by Unity, not only the above is illogical but also, diminishes any chance of a good desktop experience with Ubuntu.
Also if we take into consideration the tests that have been form https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DemystifyingUnityGraphicsHardwareRequirements it is obvious that for at least a bearable experience, a user will need :
* 1000 GHz processor (about Intel Celeron or better)
* 1024 MiB RAM (system memory)
* 3D Acceleration Capable Videocard with at least 256 MB
From experience, we all know that it is recommended to have 2048 MiB RAM to properly run a day to day Ubuntu.
A good start should be with minimum 1024 and recommended 2048 MiB RAM.
