I have an older (2000) Compaq Armada 1750 laptop Intel Pentium II 400 MHz, 192 MB Ram, 10 GB Hard Drive, and I'm glad I put XP (Home Edition) instead of Win98. Runs like a charm, no blue screens of death. Have it on a wireless network, and running a anti-virus program in the background. Takes about 1.3 minutes to boot up after some tweaking. Runs Office XP and Adobe products great. Haven't played the big games with it, but I use my desktop for the fun stuff. Hope this is helpfull for the non-believers / pensive people. Give it a shot and see what happens, after some "tweaking" you'll be glad you did!!
