It is good to know what one is buying the hardware for. It makes things a lot easier. Especially for people who may unnecessarily be tech savvy or may have some knowledge outdated - in the modern tech, it could happen fast. Perhaps simply to seek out the listed requirements, if the thing is a particular - or peculiar - piece of software and maybe ask someone from the consumer help, where the purchase is being done. It is always a solid thing to work with if to give specific parameters for the machine desired to achieve.
Facing it, otherwise it is a lottery. Even if the required specs are low, it is good to make sure for compatibility.
