Smackre, I think Windows 7 would run acceptably well for you, especially if you upgraded the RAM to 2 GB. But as far as the Windows 7 "Aero" eye-candy, well I doubt it would work on an older laptop like you have. But that really doesn't matter. It just won't look quite as nice. And Windows 7 is free until March of 2010 so there's really no risk in trying it out. And if you do upgrade the memory and hard drive and still end up going back to XP, it still will be worth it, as XP will like the upgrades, too.
