1GB would serve you fine for XP... 2 for vista.
i highly doubt you would need that much storage space either... if you do, you can get drives up to 500GB for reasonable prices, and will have no problem with space. almost all cases have room for another HDD.
I was just suggesting a high amount of storage cause its better to have it and not need it then need it and not have it.

I have three HP laptops and am totally and completely sold on them. Much better than the Dell'* I have owned. I have the tablet HP and it is the most awesome-est thing evah!
On desktops, I always buy from systemax.com. You get all the name brand parts at incredible discounts. My super-desktop at work would have cost $4500 at Dell, but got it at systemax for $2800. Good quality. Worth it.
I will NEVER EVER EVER buy a Gateway.
I;m wary of Toshiba laptops. Several colleagues have had build issues.
