Even though the operating system was made for older computers, the requirements are similar to Windows XP, but it is faster then Windows XP when running with a lower amount of megahertz on the CPU and fits with less HDD space due to the removal of programs such as Microsoft Paint and Microsoft Outlook. Microsoft does not think of it as a general-purpose operating system."Microsoft Software Assurance - Frequently Asked Questions"
