xp on thinkpad x23

Hi
I am running windows xp on my thinkpad x23, 866 mhz p3. It currently
has 128mb of ram. I upgraded from win2000, which ran fine. I mainly
use it for ms office, which is also slower. My question is: will
adding 512 mb of ram ( maxing it out) help with speed? or should I go
back to windows 2k?

Thanks
