Interesting..strange that they'd have higher "minimum" CPU standards (2.8) than the "recommended" CPU standards (2.2).

The minimum system requirements assume single core cpus and the recommended requirements are for multi-core cpus.

Everytime I see his name I think of Pirates. A big, dirty, bad looking pirate with a black cover on his left eye with a dirty black beard!

It's actually derived from Friedrich Barbarossa (meaning redbeard) who was the holy Roman Emporer during the second crusade (if I remember right). He actually drowned in his armor on the way to the crusade while crossing a stream- they carried him the rest of the way in a pickle barrel so he wouldn't rot.
