Hello David - 

CA>> My W31 '486 was close to XP speed here. :-) 

WC>>> Landlady now has the latest and greatest H.P. so of
WC>>> course it works well now. 

CA>> I've mentioned this to people who claim XP is the best
CA>> version of Windows. I tell them to try installing XP onto
CA>> a 450mhz machine and see if they like it then. LOL 

DD> It appears to run smoother than W2K on any given hardware. 

I tweaked my W2K a bit here and would guess that few, if any,
XP installs are 'smoother' (or more stable) than my W2K is now.
:-) 

DD> The minimum machine we've installed it on at work is a C666
DD> (with 302MB RAM). It runs fine (along with Office XP). 

At this point in time I would say that any OS that _can't_ "run
fine" on a 666mhz machine with 302MB of memory should be
abandoned and forgotten. ;-)
