8GB minimum RAM is a lot of requirement for an OS. It makes Microsoft look like they have forgotten what an OS is supposed to be doing.

I wonder if they have plans for the developing countries, or if they will support windows 10 for much longer, because, if they expect most of us to meet the minimum specs, they're crazy.

Not only that, but requiring internet for installing also isn't optimal for many developing countries. What, you need to bring your PC to an internet cafe to install Windows? I hope Microsoft at least offers physical USB installation drives that don't require internet access.
