I would NOT suggest using XP anymore.  Software companies will no longer
offer their support when Microsoft drops it next April (2014).  If the
software of your choice works, you win.  If it doesn't, you're on your own.

Win7 is stable, usable and is supported.  It is also fairly familiar (except
some folders are in different places per Microsoft [apparent] upgrade
policy).

And after a couple days exposure to Win8 - the interface SUX!  It's the new
Vista.  Avoid it like the plague until they fix it.  Nothing is where it
should be.

I would look for one that is running Windows XP or Windows7.
