sys requirements for WSUS

Hi guys,
I am about to setup a wsus server in my home lab. the server is Pentium 3 (866Mhz) and 512 MB of RAM. Will this be sufficient for a WSUS server with just 5 client pcs. The reason I am asking is because the CBT nuggets video said the minimum requirement is 1 GB of RAM and a P4. Is it absolutely necessary?

Thanks

Nothing else. Just Win Server 2003 enterprise.

According to the "Sybex" book, a server with Pentium III 700Mhz processor and 512Mb RAM can support up to 15,000 WSUS clients.

P.S. Just read the same in "Syngress" book. They say, that this is "according to Microsoft"
