What is her "bedside manner" like?............that's when you kick them out to make you a cup of tea ;)
In answer to your question...............
It will work on a 2GHz with 1Gb of PC 2700 and a 128Mb video card.
I have not tried it on lesser installations, but do watch the RAM....... A VM uses it in a different way from a single install ;)
Vista should be thrown into room 101 for rest of time, and everyone who got sucker into using Vista should be given free Windows 7 and free therapy sessions too.
How different are we talking?Quote:

The basic difference is that VMs run concurrently whereas multiboot systems run consecutively. Each loaded VM takes resource, plus a certain amount of overhead.
If you want to use the XP Mode feature (which runs in a VM), Microsoft recommend that you have an additional 1Gb of RAM. That sounds about right to me, as XP SP3 seems quite happy with 1Gb.
I am talking pretty minimal 32bit systems here, such as you might expect to find in a SOHO environment (around here anyways). That would be word processing, accounts, spreadsheets, databases, e-mail, internet, and other business type software.
I think that you can trust Microsoft's requirements specifications if you bear in mind that they will be aimed at average domestic and office environments.
