 UNR currently fits within 1 GB USB sticks (and "ability to write to a
 flashdrive" seems a bit heavy).

 (Not sure "modern" makes sense for netbooks)

 I wrote a tentative wording of the reqs over there; the important
 things are:
 - screen resolution; 600 pixels of height is not perfectly supported
   but quite close; 480 pixels of height isn't
 - 3D support


 For actual writing, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR has instructions but
 also mixes information about the OEM spin of UNR.


 We need to update http://www.canonical.com/projects/ubuntu/unr to match
 the reqs.

   Bye
