" ... Windows XP can slow down PCs."
You got that right. I tried switching some 3 year old 500mhz PIIIs to winXP. Sheesh.
So I dumped the whole lot and installed RH9. Now the PCs run fine, and the clients don't have to upgrade to the newest models. Saves about $1000 a seat if you are a business.
Most people use their PCs for brwosing and writing. These recovered machines do this just fine.

Pardon my ignorance - "RH9"? Terminal?
I am always looking for ways to decrease cost and increase reliability for my clients and am not head over heels in love with Macrosoft.

I've had XP on a 350mhz Vectra w/192mb memory. The speed is perfectly OK for surfing the internet and using office applications
