Saw this video on YouTube a few days ago, it’s really interesting. Seemed like XP, 7 and (somehow 8.1) ran pretty good. Here’s the video for anyone wanting to see it :P https://youtu.be/7VZJO-hOT4c

Tho while 8 may be more performant, it’s also less usable imo. Would like to see how this stacks up with different OSs!
