32MB? Your kidding, right?
Win2k ran, but slowly with 64MB, and getting over 128 helped a great deal. I can't imagine running XP on 64, much less 32.
I totally agree with Xiven. Even if you could install XP, it would be so ungodly slow it wouldn't be funny.
256MB is around $50USD, and that's cheap. Best thing you can do to those systems.

Just in case Xivan and Brian weren't convincing enough, I'm posting to agree with them. 2000 runs slowly with 64 MB, well with 128, better with more than that. 32 MB would bring either of those OSes to a crawl with constant paging.
Memory is creap, put at least another 64 in both, or might as well go 128 or more with the low prices now.

Technically speaking, you CAN run windows 2000 or XP on a 386 if you WANTED to even with 32 or less MB of ram. The question is: are you NUTSS enough to do it!
