I was thinking of two guest OS. One of them I am thinking of Ubuntu. Can I have windows as one of the guest OS on Xen?
Thanks,

Is this processor something that I can attempt to install Xen on? Or should I be looking at upgrading it to a higher processor?

I believe this processor has hardware virtualization support so you
should be alright for HVM (it will already do PV). The clock speed is
2GHz so the performance will be alright for the most part.

What do you plan to use it for? Eg. Guest type and number of guests?
