I prefer Windows XP (I customized it to look and feel like 98) to the original

I would advise, if you have the money, to get a new one lol.

I have XP with,
2.0 Ghz
512 RAM
GeForce4 64MB
60 Gig Hard Drive

I paid like $1500 for it.

I hope you aren't serious.

XP, just make sure you get 1) Professional, and 2) Update all of your drivers.
