If you came into this topic expecting discussion about Anal
Fissures then you're going to be quite upset. It's actually
a quick question.

Anybody know if Virtual PC 2004 is worth giving a whirl? I
want to have a play with Vista but I can't be arsed to
partition my drive and thought that a Virtual Machine would
probably be the best route. Any other suggestions?

depending on your setup, i wouldnt reccomend it, i hear vpc
eats up cpu cycles like those hippos in that game where they
were all really hungry.

then again, ive only had my mac for a shade over a month, so
who am i to talk? i do have winxppro boot camped and running
like butter tho.

Sorry Dave.

Thanks for the tip hedphukker. You mentioing Macs has
reminded me of Parallels. I believe they have a PC client.
I'll go investigate that too.

never had any problems with setting up a virual machine in
VPC, apart from the emulation being painfully slow on the
mac, but that shouldnt be any problems on your pc

just do it!
