I'd say the absolute minimum is the size of the live image, i.e. the
size of a CD.

Note that the Fedora Desktop Live image, our default offering, now
targets a 1 GB size so it must be burned to either a recordable DVD or
a USB stick. Release notes for F13 Beta and beyond now reflect this:

Media production budgeting should take this into account, but as for
USB sticks, 1 GB is about the smallest you'll find nowadays. The cost
differences I've seen between 1 GB and 2 GB are negligible, and 2 GB
gives you better options for persistent storage of /home and an
overlay.
