Acrobat 5.0.5 is unsupported with WinXP, but you and I can get it to
work, yes. FrameMaker 6 is supported on WinXP with a patch, but earlier
versions are not.

Not necessarily. I'm currently running WinXP at work with Frame 6 and
Acrobat 4.0. I don't know what sorts of gymnastics the IT guys had to do
to
get it to work (if any - the computer was already set up when I got
here),
but everything works fine.
That doesn't mean I don't need an upgrade, though...Hmm....
