XP isn't quite the resource hog later OS are. I survived XP just fine with my 2 GB RAM upgrade. I was pretty excited at the time. LOL I wouldn't put together anything now with less than 16 GB. 8 GB will cover most eventualities, but 16 GB covers a lot more. I learned a lot breaking XP on a regular basis, but I wouldn't go back to it if they gave a free computer to go with it. Search is about 1000x faster on 7 than Rover ever was for me. And now people running W7 are looked at like the XP folks were when 7 came out. The irony is not lost on me.
