However, to really get it working comfortably, I'd recommend A: don't use XP, B: if you really must, have 128mb of RAM and a good motherboard. Processor speed shouldn't matter as long as you have at least a Pentium 200MMX. Though I must say, the fastest motherboard I've ever seen for a Pentium is the old one from my Gateway 2000 P5-60, and with 40MB of SIMMs, and the 60mhz processor, it ran Debian easily as fast as that P200MMX from a Dell Optiplex Gxi. Your P-133 should be just fine with Win95. My neighbor has ME on her P-133 with 32mb of RAM. No, I take that back, 95 isn't any good on any computer.
