Title: If it can run Windows 2000, XP would be doable.

It started with Win 95. It now runs Win 98. And tests for Win 2K looks promising (on an R-Pi 3, though he wants on an R-Pi 0).

If it can do Win 2K, it can run Win XP.

If it can run do smoothly I'll try it myself, for other applications than a watch mind you.

With the R-Pi 3, using its 1GB and 64bit Quad Core CPU, it should do it nicely. Even the R-Pi 2 with the 32Bit Quad Core CPU, it should run smoothly.

The issue I see is the amount of RAM: 1GB. It may not be enough for some things.
