The Minimum System Requirements have been announce, though Anet also say they may change.
Good to see that older machines are supported. 25GB of hard disk space! Though I doubt that will be requried for the release, they are probably just covering themselves for the future in some way. Not that 25GB is a problem for HDD's today
It will certainly be an issue for some SA gamers and their caps 
I think that all we South African's need to worry about is how will the game play over our broadband connections. The persistent world is more of a challenge than GW1, so lag I am sure will be a much bigger issue. Wait and see I guess.
Windows XP Service Pack 2 or better
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz, Core i3, AMD Athlon 64 X2 or better
NVIDIA GeForce 7800, ATI Radeon X1800, Intel HD 300 or better (256MB of video RAM and shader model 3.0 or better)
25GB available HDD space
Broadband Internet Connection
Keyboard & Mouse
