I just bought a new Gateway PC with Windows ME or whatever they call it these days. I was told by the sales person that Win2000 uses much more PC hardware capacity than 95, 98 and ME. So you are correct, XP may not use as much resource power as Win2000 but many people are still using 95, 98 and ME in both the business and consumer market. So an hardware upgrade is necessary. This type of marketing will only speed the transition to renting software off a central server with constant upgrades.
