Virtual PC

(1/1)

brucecassidy:
Right well i have been using OSx for a little while now and love it, great programs and i have almost completely done away with my pc except i have a program that i use for music production that requires windows i have a copy of win 2000 a mate gave me but im not prepared to pay over the odds for VP so are there any open source VP programs out there.

Oh yes i am trying out garage band and am thinking about getting acopy of Logic Express 7 but it is quite pricey so i hope to beable to get VP working.

Cheers guys

Find someone who does computer work for the local school system. I got a 'copy' of VPC 6 and a serial that way. Version 6.1 is for G4's and 7.x for G5's. It works okay for number crunching. You can't properly play video or sound with it. Win2000 should work okay. I use 98SE for video recoding Windows media to generic mp1 and mp2.

My understanding is that VPC is a paid version of Qemu.  So getting Qemu for free might be a possible solution.  Q is a graphical version, read all about it here:

My experience with Qemu for Mac suggests otherwise.  It's almost unusably slow on a 1.5GHz G4.
