Why say that a bigger hard drive and more RAM are needed? If you  
check the needs listed on the box, you can read the minimum  
requirements and they are nowhere near what you are saying.

Maybe you have never tried using the "custom" install option? I can  
install OS 10.4 in as little as 1.9Gb of space by eliminating the  
printer drivers that are not going to be used, the foreign fonts, and  
the foreign language support.

You should not tell someone to do something to their Mac just because  
your Mac/Macs are bigger, faster, or newer.

You are right about one thing, the QS can only recognize 1.5Gb of RAM  
according to MacTracker.
