Well, it says preliminary... ;).

On a more serious note, what's more important for this kind of game, processing power or RAM?

RAM (within reasonable limits on the clock speed). Clock speed doesn't matter if it waiting for the harddisk to respond, since the harddisk is usually around in the order of 100 000 or 1000 000 times slower than the RAM it usually pays to increase memory size.

Dang it, dang it, DANG IT!!!
All I have is a 366MHz LAPTOP i.e. cannot be upgraded. My bro's got a kickass system, but he's in uni, so ARGH!
Before CK comes out, hopefully I can get a cool PC or laptop.
