Does Windows run on anything less, these days?

Despite sitting in front of Windows for at least 60 hours a week, being a Windows developer and having half a dozen PCs in the house, I have only just got my first machine faster than a P2 366.

Also, in recent years Windows has actually got faster with each version. Win2k was faster in the same hardware (assuming a sensible amount of memory is installed) as Win98/WinNT4 and WinXP is faster than Win2k.

Not many people actually need anything faster than about a P2 366. Everyone needs at least 384MB of memory though. Although if you are ripping your entire CD collection a faster CPU definitely is handy...
