I have a pair of 128MB RAMBUS DIMMS in my hands you can have, and a decent 30+Gb hard drive if you need it. That should be more than enough to run even XP without pain.

If you are doing hard core photoshop, that may not be enough though.

Unless you have a key for XP, you are pretty much hosed on XP since MS put ther new validation system in for all critical updates.

You could throw linux on it and run one of the OpenSource image editors.
