5 year old Pentium 90s (and a lot of 'em have 32 MB of RAM, almost all have at least 16MB) surf the 'net just fine. I really don't think that you're putting an employee that is responsible primarily for Excel and Word documents at much of a disadvantage. And I think that there's a whole lot of lower end Pentiums in Fortune 500 shops than you think.

The key to me is the speed of upgrade to Win2000. And that upgrade is going a whole heck of a lot slower than Microsoft ever expected. And if Linux ever gets so that it can scale well, the upgrade might never occur.
