My first computer, beyond using other peoples Apple IIe or ancient XBOX sized IBMs was a:

Hewlett Packard
733 mhz processor
Windows 3.11 Operating System pre-installed
128 Megs of Ram
500 MB HDD

I used that thing for 8 years.... Struggling along through Win 95 and then 98 and a few Hard Drive Upgrades.  At least I played some amazing games on that thing.  From many of the LucasArts SHUMP titles, Tie Fighter, most of the SIM titles and etc.

Why did that computer come with Windows 3.1? Judging from those specs, that computer is more than capable of running Windows XP.
