Minimum System Requirements for Winamp 5.0?

Can someone please post the Minimum System Requirements for Winamp 5.0 here? and would the moderators please make it "sticky".

In spite of the importance of this information it has not appeared on the Winamp website for sometime! It was previously here on the forums in the Winamp 2 and Winamp 3 FAQs, but I can't see anything here now for any version of Winamp.

Thanks

Thanks Rellik for the information.

Fot the Winamp Webmasters:
This is a vital piece of information and realy should be shown on the download page. Many people still have older PC's that would have problems running Winamp 5.0, so it would also be useful to provide a download for Winamp 2.91 even if you include a disclaimer about it no longer being supported if and when that's the case.

The layout of the Winamp site these days is somewhat chaotic in my view. A cool look is far less important than being able to find what you need easily and quickly! Also, please remember that not everyone who goes to your site understands English well, and even those of us who do sometimes don't understand your "geek speak"! It's NOT cool when visitors to your site haven't a clue what you're talking about!

Thanks
