Aros runs very nicely on Acer Aspire One netbooks with the GUI being very responsive even with J-UAE running integrated on Icaros.
And in the past I had used an older version on an AMD K7 @ 600mhz with 256MB ram with a Voodoo 3 3000.

What about 2 GHz Pentium 4s?  Well in the "junk" range but surely not much worse than an atom?

Looking at various benchmarks a 1.6ghz Atom walks all over a P4 running at the same speed in most tests, Super PI, Dhrystone ALU etc
And the 2ghz P4 is roughly in the same ball park performance wise
