I have an AMD processor that is roughly equivalent to a P4 that can run Windows 7 easily on a gig of RAM.
I think the key there is "a gig of RAM". I might be wrong (I've never actually installed anything above XP on any of my machines), but as I understand it insufficient RAM is the biggest culprit for performance problems in Vista and above. Mine has 512 MB, which XP is perfectly content with.
