logic7 here...

Hmmm... You should be good. I would, however, recommend upgrading to 64Mb 
at least. Also, drop your color depth to 16bit. I have quite a bit of 
slowdown in Gnome at 32bit color and my system has 96mb memory, Permedia2 
video card, and a 366Mhz Celeron. If you think that it's your video card, 
find a Permedia2 or i740 based card, everything is pretty much hardware 
accell'ed with them. They can be had for about $30US.

Check out VMWare.  It will allow you to runa "virtual Machine" with another
operating system on it, including Win 9x if that's what you want.
