Putting an OS on a system that JUST BARELY meets the minimum requirements is such a bad idea. That poor netbook. Every netbook, really. Poor all of them. As for the no CD drive, though... couldn't you make an ISO of your XP disc, install a virtual drive on your netbook and mount the ISO, and then set it to boot from the virtual drive? voila, XP installation, right?

My laptop desktop has four files on it. mmhm is it bothering you yet? :D
