my brother is being given a old computer, it is enough to get him on the internet, and perhaps play MP3s, i hope, all i know is it is a 352Mhtz processor, i think

i was looking around for system requirements for MP3 playing utilities, winamp says 500mhz, not that i truly believe it takes that much so i will prolly try it anyway, but they are the only one that list requirements that i have found

i suppose it is because comps have gotten so powerful that one that doesnt run an MP3 player is rarely seen

I don't think any processor under 500Mhz will support anything current. The only Windows that thing is going to run is Windows 98 which is probably difficult to find apps for now that it has ended it's life cycle.

To run anything remotely decent you'll need a minimum of a 1Ghz processor.
