I'm not 100% sure on this but a rough guide would be:

2.0Ghz processor or better

512mb RAM  (1 gig for vista)

Glest is quite easy on graphics cards and is nicely scalable by setting the configuration options. It can run on crappy onboard laptop graphics chips so if you have a dedicated graphics board that wasn't made in the dark ages then you should be fine.

I have 256MB ram and 1GB swap. So 512 shouldn't be needed, at least on Linux.

I use Linux too and without swap partition :)
