As far as I know, it looks fine. The only problem that I can forsee is if you install Win2K and get driver problems. Of course this is a software problem and will not be related to your proposed setup.

Regarding the speed of the TBird, I would say anywhere from 1-1.1GHz would be reasonable, although there is only one way to find out
