On my dell optiplex I can run 2k with crashes.  Its a p1 166 with 64 mb ram.  Slow as shit!

I've tried putting winXP and 2in2k3 on ity with no success.  The hardware was simply not powerful enough.  I have ran Linux with even older machnies (p75) and they work great.

I'll persnoaly think a p4 @1ghz and 128mb ram is enough for anybody.  There is no reason to buy a machnine that needs even more expensive and more powerful hardware just to do the same thing and get the same kind of results with more vouyer power given to M$ corps.
