WinXP can give better with performance then 98se. you just have to know how to modify the OS.
Me and the guys at the computer lab benchmarked a system with a 233mhz (MMX) Pentium 1 with 64mb of RAM (EDO)
Then we used a 400mhz AMD K6-3+ (MMX and 3Dnow) in the same system.
(The Video Card we used was a Geforce 2 MX200 PCI)
This is how we set it
Win98se, with a 233mhz Pentium 1 (Average)
Vs.
Win98se, with a 400mhz AMD K6-3+ (Average but crushed the Pentium 1)
WinXP Stock, with a 233mhz Pentium 1 (Total Loser compared to everything else)
Vs.
WinXP Modified, with a 233mhz Pentium 1 (better then average of win98 and it match the Stock AMD in Most things except 3D games)
WinXP Stock, with a 400mhz AMD K6-3+ (beat out the 233+98se. match 233+XP-Mod (except in 3D) and it lost to the 400+98se)
Vs.
WinXP Modified, with a 400mhz AMD K6-3+ (crushed everything in the test)
