"... on paper at least, Ubuntu's system requirements are higher than Windows 11 as the latter still recommends a 1GHz 2-core CPU, and 4GB of RAM. Only in the department of storage will Ubuntu still only require 25GB of space. Although to be fair to Canonical here, Windows 11's new AI features do require a more powerful system as the CPU and RAM requirement for them did get a big revision."
ROFL, I'm running 32gb at least as a bare minimum. You can't even breathe on either OS with less than 16gb. As for storage space, standard storage is 1TB. 25GB is a gnat's pimple compared to that.
