If you’re looking for a computer that comes equipped with Windows XP, this article will discuss different brands and makes that have just what you’re looking for.

Discontinued or Refurbished

For computers that come equipped with XP, one thing to keep in mind is that some of these computers could be on clearance or even refurbished. What that means is that the computers you find may not be the most up to date in regards of processor, memory, or hard drive space, to name a few. However, this list will cut out some of the work for you, listing computers that have a good amount of memory, hard disk space and processing power to meet your growing needs.

Take note that all of these computers listed will not include a monitor, and some may even just have the tower, meaning you’ll need to buy other hardware (mouse, keyboard, speakers) separately.
