    It needs to run perfectly smoothly with something that can run an iPod and a Creative Zen Vision M, and The Gimp.
    Also I'd love to test it on this:

    Clean install using Full OEN CD /T:C:\WININSTO.400/SrcDir=D:Win98/IZ
    IE 5 6.0.2800.1106

    you could use feather linux. it is about 50mb and uses only a few mb of ram. it works well and can use many apps.
