Yes, they are above the official minimum requirements. XP will work with
that configuration, but don't expect great performance. The 667MHz isn't too
bad, but 191MB (you're sure it's not 192MB?) of RAM is really the absolute
minimum I would try to run XP with.

How much RAM you need depends on what applications you run, but most people
running a typical range of business applications find that somewhere around
256-384MB works well, others need 512MB. Almost anyone will see poor
performance with less than 256MB. Some people, particularly those doing
things like editing large photographic images, can see a performance boost
by adding even more than 512MB--sometimes much more.
