Your right, however I couldn't find system requirements for any version. 
I've just installed 9.2.2 onto Windows from binary. It's common for 
software packages to have a section titled "System Requirements" like 
Oracle has here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm#CIHFEBGE

For PostgreSQL all I have managed to conclude is:
OS: Windows 2000 (for Windows version)
RAM: Unspecified
Hard Disk: Unspecified
CPU: Any x86

I can see from the install folder it has used 180Mb, but it may well 
have installed files elsewhere. Obviously it depends on install options. 
Surely there must be a minimum RAM requirement? I can't see it running 
well on a 486 with 4Mb RAM.
