Indeed they do. But running XP on a Pentium 2 is painful enough. I would hate to try and run it on a P1! But, as you are no doubt going to try Steve it would be great to find out if, firstly you can actually get it to run, and secondly how damn long it takes to boot! BTW, hope it has some extra ram as there is no way XP will even bother working properly with less than 128MB.

BTW, that laptop would be great to run a version of Linux on after you have finished testing it with XP.
