The graphics card is not so important because the program does not use 3D functions.
I was getting about 26 fps with an Athlon XP 2400 ... only 1 fps slower than your XP 3000. I wonder if graphics card performance does play more of a role? Clearing the screen and painting pixels may be plain faster on some graphics cards. I've got a Radeon 9700 non pro in this machine, what kind of a graphics card are you using? In the (latest) final version of your program (posted above) I get 41 fps.
turned out to be 16 fps, had something running in the background, a rather disappointing score for an amd64-3000, i think this motherboard asus k8n-e deluxe sux...

I get 41 fps on my pooter (spec in my sig) with the "final" version with 500Mb RAM already used by my open programs. Will try with a compiled version and nothing open later to see if it's any quicker
Amazing demo by the way, beautifully done and shows off PB very well
