Thanks to Anthony for this one:
Microsoft has developed a set of guidelines and recommendations for PC manufacturers seeking to label their machines with the Windows XP logo. These aren´t finalized yet, but I want to share them with you so you can consider them when purchasing your next computer.
Some of the items I´ve listed are requirements and others are mere recommendations or best practices; for simplicity´s sake, I have made no distinction between them. Interestingly, while the "PC Design Checklist for Windows XP" includes just about everything else, I see nothing about processor speed. I guess "faster is better" goes without saying.
