I hope this helps?

Hi Nirma,

Smart clients are simply C# apps with network access.

Your requirements are simply those of the .NET framework.  You can find the
.NET requirements on the Microsoft site.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/technologyinfo/sysreqs/default.aspx
(You need to plan for the .NET Redistributable, not the framework)

Apps in C# are small.  If the app already exists, ask the developers.  I get
the feeling that the app doesn't exist yet, though, and you are in a
planning cycle for a government or large corporate setting, and you need to
plan for deployment.

As you can see, HD space for the .NET redistributable is 150MB.  Your smart
client will probably add less than 1MB in executables, setup and
documentation, so use 1MB of HD space.  If you already have the .NET 1.1
redis on a PC, you don't need it again.  Windows Server 2003 already has it
installed.

OS, Memory, processor, RAM are all documented in the link above.

Hope this helps,
