    Win 7 works on most machines.
    But it's speed will depend on the spec of the laptop, cpu, ram.

    if you are intending on using Windows 7 on that machine (i wouldnt personally) - i would suggest upgrading the RAM to 2GB if possible?

    if you cant upgrade it for any reason then i would highly suggest turning off all the fancy crap that Windows 7 does.
    Go into "System" - click on the "advanced" tab
    Under "Performance" click the "Settings..." button
    Select "Adjust for best performance" and it should unselect all the checkboxes below
    once thats done click "Apply" then "OK"

    this will reduce the amount of raw power Windows 7 needs and might just make it usable on the laptop
    You know he grew up as a little shitspark from the old shitflint and then he turned into a shitbonfire and driven by the winds of his monumental ignorance he turned into a raging shitfirestorm. If I get to be married to Barb I'll have total control of Sunnyvale and then I can unleash the shitnami tidal wave that will engulf Ricky and extinguish his shitflames forever. And with any luck he'll drown in the undershit of that wave. Shitwaves.
