I've been using Gimp since the days of the r4000 and 486.  I learned
it on a machine that had 8MB-- that's MB not GB-- of RAM.

You need memory and disk proportional to the size of the images you're
manipulating.  You need processor proportional to the kinds of editing
you're doing.  There is no hard minimum, and no clearly demarcated
lines.
