Re: FLASH: OT Virtual PC on a G4?

[Michael Penne]

Slower than? VPC is not a good solution for graphics/3d/music software

(processor and/or video card intensive) out of the box (you can improve

graphics for instance, by installing a PC gphx card w/drivers).

However, for non-processor intensive PC apps. it works fine, great for

testing as you can run several disk images (with various browser/plug

combos) on one Mac. If you are wanting to use 3d (or other

processor/video/ram intensive) software on Virtual PC, however, I would

suggest one less G4 and getting a PC to run the PC only stuff.
