First let me say i LOVE my powerbook. However, the prices of windows computers is almost enough to make me switch back. Now, because I still need windows for some things I have virtual pc 6 on my mac running xp home. Its slow. Very slow. My question is does anyone have or has anyone used virtual pc 7? I hear its faster and I am wondering how much faster. Thanks. :mac:

I've noticed it to be a little faster. Just make sure you've installed the additions. You can't do crazy amounts of processing, but it should do the trick for your PC needs.

If you have it, install Win98. It's waaaaay faster (still rather sluggish, but not torture like XP)

XP slows anything down.... No matter how fast or new your PC.






























(Why on earth would you need an second, third, fourth, fifth or sixth mouse button? What's wrong with the keyboard? Oh i know... let make the keyboard have 3 buttons and the mouse 107 ? Hmm... we could get a huge mouse mat and shift that around... Yeah! That would be fun! Like you play CS source now! )
