improve language, remove instructions how to deal with little ram, they are out of place here

   * Thin clients with only 64 MiB RAM and 133 MHz on 32 bit processors are possible, though 256 MiB RAM or more and faster processors are recommended.
     * Swapping over the network is automatically enabled for LTSP clients; the swap size is 512 MiB, and if you need more you can tune this by editing {{{/etc/ltsp/nbdswapd.conf}}} on tjener to set the SIZE variable.
     * If your diskless workstations have hard drives, it is recommended to use them for swap as it is a lot faster than network swapping.
-  * For workstations, diskless workstations and standalone PCs, 800 MHz, 512 MiB RAM are minimum requirements. A setup with 1024 MiB RAM runs considerably better and is the recommended minimum. A faster CPU will speed things up. For running Iceweasel/Firefox and !LibreOffice, 1024 MiB RAM is the recommended minimum. 
-     *On workstations with little RAM the spell checker can cause !LibreOffice to hang if the swap space is too small. Then the system administrator has to disable the spell checker on !LibreOffice or students have to kill !LibreOffice, resulting in loss of work. Enabling at least 1024 MiB swap on a 512 MiB RAM workstation solves this, and the spell checker runs smoothly. Anyways, we recommend 1024 MiB RAM due to extensive RAM usage browsing the web.     
+  * For workstations, diskless workstations and standalone systems, 800 MHz and 512 MiB RAM are the absolute minimum requirements. For running modern webbrowsers and !LibreOffice 1024 MiB RAM is the recommended. 
+     *On workstations with little RAM the spell checker might cause !LibreOffice to hang if the swap space is also too small. If this happens frequently the spell checker can be disabled by system administrators.
     *Please tune up the swap size either locally on the PC or on the server. Please remember that placing workstation swap on the main server requires added diskspace to the required minimum.
  
   * The minimum disk space requirements depend on the profile which is installed:
