    WiC runs fine on my comp with 1gb ram. RAM is only one of a few important things. Other big ones being processor and video card.

    I think most people these days have 1gb ram. Even if you didn't, they're the more cheaper components to upgrade.

    I have a comment to make about your poll: what if your computer is on steroids already? It depends on what type of computer you have, so the poll is completely useless...unless you are using for other data.

    More than likely anyone who can't run SC2 (can't meet the minimum requirements) upon its release will just need to upgrade a few components, unless their computer really is very old. I have a low end C2D, with 1 GB DDR2 RAM and a 256MB 7600GS, but I'm sure I'll be able to at least run an enjoyable game of SC2.

    SC2 should easily run on even a bo bo computer, it's not like you need a graphics processor that worth more than your computer, and you may only need about 1000 Mb of RAM. Yeah, the graphics would look better with a good graphics card, but it's not needed.

    My guess is starcraft 2 will be available on both. Sorta like what Blizzard did with The Burning Crusade but hopefully they wont put the dvd only in the collectors edition.

    If it is on CDs it will probably take up 6 discs. If they have it onCD they will probably do what Microsoft did with Vista by putting a DVD in the box and giving you the option of ordering it on CD's for free when you provide the CD key.

    Honestly who plays games and doesn't have a DVD-ROM drive anyway? Almost every single game released in the past year has been on a DVD ROM so even if you don't have a DVD drive for some strange reason if you actually play games you will have one by then (if your PC doesn' have one it probably can't play any of the games made in the ast few years anyway)
