| 1206971 | 2011-06-05 00:02:00 | Win98SE will be fine and I think Win2000 may be ok as well. Either of the above; Linux is very limited in the games department but a LOT depends on the age of the kids. I know a 70 yr old "kid" who spends hours playing linux games on a very old PC. |

I know a 70 yr old "kid" who spends hours playing linux games on a very old PC. Linux isn't nearly as limited as it used to be. It is going to be limited by the specs of the PC anyway. |

| 1206975 | 2011-06-05 00:47:00 | Windows XP will easily fit on a 4GB Drive. A fresh install, of XP SP3 without all the current updates takes 1.91GB (give or take a couple of MB for different Motherboard drivers). |
