I'm getting by with:

200MHz Pentium (not MMX)
64MB RAM
generic S3 ViRGE video card 
6.5G 5.25" Quantum Bigfoot HD
Artisoft AE-2 thinnet ethernet card
generic DEC Tulip 10/100baseT ethernet card 
no modem
SoundBlaster 16
no speakers (a mono headset, though)
14" Packard Bell monitor that I'm borrowing from my sister.

Of course, that's the machine I usually use.  Sometimes my wife lets me use
the Windows machine that's got similar specs (233 MHz AMD K6, 160M RAM, 6.5G
Seagate HD, unused Zoom 56K modem, two ethernet cards, two soundcards, and 
on-board SiS video.  Yes, one of the ethernet cards is currently unused.)
