Would help if I didn't skim read the thread  
In terms of desirability, it's probably best to buy XP and install it. That way you appeal to the tecky and the home user. A bare PC would only really appeal to a tecky, depending on the spec. |
Exactly, it needs an OS of some sort on it really to make it more appealing to someone buying it. Ideally a new OS that people know is up to date (patched etc) with maybe a free AV and firewall loaded so that it is ready to go.
