I have to second Ubuntu. I've converted a number of PC users to it, =
including sys admins! It is worth serious consideration for most people. =
Only a gamer might need to run windoze, and most of them prefer '98 to 2000 =
or XPee. System requirements are low and it performs very well.
Give it an honest trial for a few weeks and you will probably have no need =
for a M$ OS.

The Windows 95 computer cannot handle Windows XP! It's also debatable as to =
whether it's worth purchasing Windows XP for the other two.
PS A free alternative for the Windows 95 computer is to install Ubuntu =
Linux. It's free and comes with a variety of FREE (legally) in-built =
softwares: OpenOffice.org =3D word processor/spread sheet/presentation =
software that's compatible with MS Office files; e-mail software; and, with =
web browsing software (FireFox, Mozilla, Opera). On Windows you are also =
able to play nearly any multi-media file and RealPlayer is available for =
Ubuntu.
You can order (free) CDs from:
https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
It's as easy to install as Mac OS X!
Eric.
