I know what you are saying right now “Isn’t Outlook part of Office 2007, why would there be another set of requirement’s other than that of the Office requirements?”
Well Microsoft Outlook is a part of Office 2007 and will work within the requirements that Office 2007 asks for however Outlook 2007 has had its own set of publicized system requirements so it is only fair that I let you know them. As you will see there is not much difference in fact the only difference that I have noticed is in the Operating System.
Minimum System Requirements for Outlook 2007
CPU – 500MHz
Memory – 256MB (Not an issue for people using Windows Vista)
Hard Disk – 1.5GB
Drive - CD-ROM
Display - 1024×768
Operating System - Windows XP with Service Pack 2 or Windows Desktop Search 3.0
Browser - Internet Explorer
Now to be honest those requirements are only going to be an issue to a very small amount of people, if you have an up to date computer running Windows XP or Windows Vista you really don’t even have to think about this.
Always remember that Minimum means just that, it will always be better to have a system that exceeds the minimum requirements to ensure smooth running all of the time.
