.Mac

You don't need much to run .Mac its requirements are pretty minimal. To run .Mac and use most of its features, all you need is a Macintosh running Mac OS X, 128 MB of RAM, and a browser such as Safari, Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or later, or Netscape 7 or later. But if you want to use Backup 2 the free file backup software that comes with your .Mac account you'll need Mac OS X 10.2.8 or later. To run iDisk, you'll need Mac OS X 10.1.2 or later. The iDisk Utility for Windows requires you guessed it a PC running Windows XP.
