There are no good, fast virtual programs period. Unfortunately they are all slow and present problems gaming and connecting to the 'net. VirtualPC was maybe the best but read what others have to say on posts here by doing a search.

Worth re-quoting.

Just do a search for VirtualPC - it's slow at best. Windows was never, and will never be, built for the PPC architecture so you will encounter problems.
