I have been pondering this very question myself for TS. I found single
thread XP to be dramatically slower than single tread 2000. 2000 will not
handle HT in all its glory, but sounds like dual core might be just fine. Of
course, TS doesn't officially support 2000 anymore.
BTW, my multi-threading issue with TS and XPdiscussed here a few weeks ago
has now found its way to TS QA; not sure what the outcome will be, but it
was not XP or hardware causing it. If anyone is interested in the TS forum
post on it, email me and I will give you the link. I'd rather not post here.
It is quite a tale.

Subject: Re[2]: w2000 on Core2Duo ?
Hello Jimmy,
JS> Will Marketcast run on XP?
Yes.
However, between a group of known users, 2 of us have been using w2000 and
getting solid,
stable performance compared to others running faster cpu's etc on XP. It
seems many XP users are
getting high % cpu utilisation and more.
With the data load coming from the ASX increasing, my P3 with w2000 slows
down abit sometimes during
the mkt open & close, but doesn't crash.
After googling for some time, it seems I found my answer in these white
papers;
Intel Core Microarchitecture, quoting;
"This information applies for the following operating systems:
Microsoft Windows Server Longhorn
Microsoft Windows Vista
Microsoft Windows Server 2003
Microsoft Windows XP
Microsoft Windows 2000"
