[documentation] Where is the page stating minimum requirements needed for running Drupal?

[blogdiva at culturekitchen.com]

Hi all,

I am working on some recommendations for a client and I noticed  
something : Nowhere on the front page of Drupal is there a link to  
the minimum requirements needed for running it.

Neither of the following pages state it either :

http://drupal.org/about
http://drupal.org/handbook/is-drupal-right-for-you
http://drupal.org/handbook/version-info

I have to go 8 pages deep to find in this page a link :

http://drupal.org/node/43438

The page does not address users but "professional consultants".

So from there I get to here:

http://drupal.org/node/270

I may be missing something but could not find in the top half of the  
front page any links to this information. Nor is there any link  
available in the downloads page for the Drupal Project.

http://drupal.org/project/Drupal+project

As you noticed, I did not go to the handbook directly. It's the last  
place for me to check. My instinct is to look in "About Drupal" or  
the Downloads page. Not the handbooks. I search for information on  
web page like most people : Not by reading but scanning for  
information. And reading a handbook is the last thing I want to do  
when looking for quick answers. No wonder my client was flumoxed when  
scanning for information around the Drupal site. They said they  
couldn't find anything they were looking for : a quick checklist of  
requirements with maybe a list of hosts that could potentially run  
the system.

Comments?
