Can a 510 with win7pro do xp mode? How well does that work? I'm thinking of running an older version of wordperfect that way.

I believe you have to download XP mode and install it for it to work.

Yes...I know...I was wondering if anyone had experience with it as to whether or not it works well...or is a pain in the butt not worth fooling with.

Depends what you want to do. I'd say it works fine for its intended purpose of running typical office apps. How old a version of WP are you using?
