Rather go read the original forum thread http://forum.thewindowsclub.com/windows-hardware-devices/28053-windows-7-dinosaur.html , its much more entertaining than this piece of crap 'reporting'.

This post was a 1 liner with no evidence to support it. His alleged PC is a P III 333Mhz with 128MB Ram. Win 7 won't go any further in the installation if you have less than 512MB and in case you didnt pick that up; there is no such thing as a P III 333Mhz. Whats the lesson? Don't believe everything you read.

There are actually other who supply pics, with rather surprising results. Go read http://forum.thewindowsclub.com/windows-hardware-devices/28053-windows-7-dinosaur.html and don't fall for this sensationalist P-of-C.

Where does it say 333Mhz.

I ran XP on a Pentium II. Back in 2001, I had a Pentium II 350, a GeForce 2 Deluxe 64 MB DDR RAM from Asus, 128MB of RAM and 6GB of HDD space.
It definately did not take 17 min to boot, it would take about 1 minute.
