I see your discussion. In my opinion the most important thing is that a user gets a complete working system. Probably the bottom level for Lubuntu is a P4 or a Pentium M with 512MB ram 30 or 40 GB hard-disk.
Jan:
I have a perfectly usable Pentium 3 system, with 512 megabytes RAM, and a speed of 930 (some 900-number) megahertz. I could put a DVD drive in that one, if needed. It boots from USB using Plop.
I have a MacBook (32-bit), running Mac OS X, with a Lubuntu partition. It only has a CD drive, but I can get it to boot from USB.
A machine that is too slow to bother with for one person, can be just fine for another. It depends on what you use it for.
The people using such machines should decide if they want to keep using them.
I strongly resist the idea of someone else declaring (based on their own usage patterns) that other peoples machines should no longer be supported.
