Ah, a new release and a new set of system requirements (recommendations) for your pc’s to run Revit 2011. Actually, looking at the list the only thing that really stands out is they are actually support Windows 7…which really isn’t a surprise since many have been using 2010 without an issue for a while. Here’s the information from the Autodesk website…filtered slightly. If you want to see the full list, check out this PAGE.
