my roommate used his for mp3 playback and found it slow under windows. he ended up using a dos program mplayer (?name) which worked ok in 32 meg ram in windows. The speaker and amp is crappy--you'll want a decent pair of amplified speakers if you don't use headphones. I used a 70CT in both dos and linux (windows is a resource pig) and the 70 was great for mp3 playback.
I've never had major problems running Winamp in Windows on any of my Libs. It will slow down a bit when using the library feature. But heck... I've set up replaygain and gapless playback plugins, and along with using the library most of the time, find it to run quite satisfactorily.
