The World's Slowest Windows XP System

Never complain again about how horribly slow your PC is until you've seen this.



Quote:
That puts the XP in back in Windows XP -- Xtremely Pokey:

The CPU is working at 60% of full capacity at the Desktop! Nowadays with a modern CPU you have to run many tasks in background to reach such a high level of work.

For this reason you had to have patience, very often. Do recognize the changing of the blue color on the screen before the "Welcome"-page?? At 20 MHz you can see all 8 blues line by line!

Great stuff. The actual minimum system requirements for Windows XP are a 233 MHz CPU and 64 megabytes of RAM.

I don't think he did! I think it's from the site that he linked to at the end of his post.

Prozessor is the German word for processor, and the guy is running a German PC. BTW, Windows XP is actually 32-bit.

Hey you guys, have a look at this site for more fun about this topic.

XP Minimal-Requirement-Test
Quote:
The target of this project was to find the weakest system where you can run Windows XP.
Keep in mind, that Microsoft official requirements are a CPU with 233 MHz an 64 MB of RAM.
But that had to be beaten!

to network capability is it more reliable than professional edition?

I need the comparisson between Media Center and Professional Edition.
