[QUOTE="hugtheslug, post: 954652, member: 48841"] If your basic windows stuff will run in Windows 2000 try installing that in Virtual PC; it uses far less resources than XP. I had relative success running '98 on a G4 iBook so you might be OK with 2000 on a G5. Also, if you can get away without installing antivirus software your virtual machine won't get dragged down so much. Cheers :) Hugh [/QUOTE]
