Reference hardware / OS platforms

The machine configurations described here are examples of machines which have been tested to work well with the DeskArtes IDS. Also the performance of the program should be sufficient for normal use with these configurations.

Other machine configurations using same parts will most probably also work well, although that cannot be guaranteed.
