Can someone please tell me where to look on the www.quickbooks.com for the system requirements?  I have spent too much time just looking for this one simple thing.  What are the minimum requirements for running the multi-user QB Premier Accountant 2010 version?

If you are going to send me back to the web page then tell me where to look because I can't find it.  Thank you!

After you get to www.quickbooks.com you click on products and select QuickBooks Premier Accountant Edition and then click on the system req tab.  Here's a link, but you may still have to click on the sys reqs tab.  It gives info for both single user and multi user.
