Microsoft Virtual PC 2004

5 stars (I can't believe I haven't tried this before) - I've been using computers for 25 years, so I'm a bit jaded and not easily wowed. However, using Virtual PC 2004 has wowed me. I've stayed away from this kind of software in the past because I worried that it would run very slowly. I was wrong. I have now created two virtual machines, one Windows XP Pro and one Linux distro (PCLinuxOS) and I couldn't be happier. Not only can I run other operating systems without rebooting, but they run nearly as fast as normal. Even better, I can close them into a kind of hibernate mode so that the next time I start them up they are right where I was before. I have also set up the undo disk feature. With that, if I screw something up I can just decide to not save any changes to the virtual machine. So, if I get a virus it doesn't do any damage. If a software install trashes the system it doesn't do any real damage. Finally, I can access my host PC from the virtual PC to exchange files just as I would on a normal network. I highly recommend this software. Get the 45-day trial version first, and then I'll bet you buy a copy just like I did. 5 stars (I am loving it!) - Yesterday evening I downloaded the virtual pc 45 day trial from microsoft to try out on my tablet pc. Within an hour, using only my net connection (no floppy, no cdrom) I had a running Debian Linux system. This really rocks! I have already placed an order for the licensed package here on Amazon. 4 stars (Using Minix on Virtual PC for Windows free demo version) - My interest in Virtual PC is for experimenting with the Minix operating system without repartitioning the hard disk. Minix is meant for educational use, and university lab PCs are not always available for dedicated use. I downloaded the free VPC for Windows demo. I found VPC easy to install on a Windows 2000 system. However, the link to Microsoft support on the startup page did not work for me. Installing Minix on a VPC virtual disk was anot...

Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac 7 0 with Windows 2000

4 stars (Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac with Windows 2000) - Very pleased with its operation and speed. It is able to run ACI's appraisal software flawlessly. ...

Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac 7 0 Upgrade

1 stars (No Windows 98 support) - Beware...this "upgrade" drops support for anything less than Windows 2000. The system requirements mainly pertain to the Mac side of things and even Microsoft's site simply states that a "licensed copy of Windows" is required. Well, my copy of Windows 98 is licensed but doesn't work. Others have apparently migrated Win98SE but I had no such luck and met with disaster (thank gooodness for backups). So...It's great that it works on my G5, but unfortunately its useless unless I go out and buy WinXP or 2000 and go through the pain of migrating my PC info. 3 stars (Really meant only for a G5 ...) - It works pretty well, but (as other reviewers have stated) VPC is an absolute BEAST on your systems resources. You have to keep in mind that you're (basically) running two operating systems at the same time; and, unfortunately, both Win XP and OS/X are rather demanding on your system's RAM and processor speed. Again, VPC works well and I'd have no problem recommending it, but MAKE SURE you have at least a Gig of RAM and a G5 processor. Anything less and (although it may still work) you'll be so displeased with the performance that you'll want to put your head through a wall. 2 stars (ssssslowwwww......) - I purchased MS Virtual PC 7.0 w/Windows XP about six months ago for use on my 1.33 Ghz G4 iBook. Setup was relatively easy and took about an hour and a half to complete. Unfortunately, it was all down hill from there. My main reason for buying Virtual PC was to run MS Money 2005 Deluxe on my Mac (Quicken for Mac is terrible, but that's another story). It took about 5 minutes to open my Money file. This was followed by an endless series of painfully long wait times between key strokes. Eventually it locked up completely. After about six more attempts I gave up. I tried playing several games like Rise of Nations and Age of Empires but they were just as tedious and often locked up during the initial loading. I strongly recommend...

Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac 7 0

4 stars (This emulator works) - I've been using Virtual PC for about six months now and I am satisfied. I use Virtual PC to run Microsft Money and QuickBooks on a G5 with 1GB of RAM, of which 700MB is allocated to Virtual PC. Using an emulator can be slow. But I've found that if you use one program at a time, it responds well. In other words, if you stay in Quickbooks and don't swap over to AppleMail, Safari, etc, the program running in the emulator works reasonably well. Surprisingly, I haven't run across any Windows issues. Installation of Virtual PC and Windows XP, Money and Quickbooks all occurred without any concerns. I have not experienced any BSDs (Blue Screens of Death) or any other hang ups. When running Virtual PC, the G5 will not go into sleep mode. So, if you leave your G5 running all day and night like I do, the energy savings mode will not kick in. If you need to run more complex programs in Virtual PC, I suggest that you max out the RAM at 2GB and devote as much as possible to the Virtual PC. One minor annoyance is that when swapping between programs, sometimes it take Virtual PC a long time to respond. So say you are working in Safari and you then move into Virtual PC. It can sometimes take 15-20 secs before Virtual PC responds. 1 stars (Misleading Advertisement) - The product does not include the Windows operating system needed to make the program work, and this was not made clear in the advertisement. There is no benefit to buying this; I now need to track down Windows operating system for the Mac. 1 stars (Virtual PC: a big waste of money) - Virtual PC is a big waste of money. For not much more money you can buy an inexpensive PC to run your windows based programs. Virtual PC is slow and is filled with glitches and problems but don't try to get any customer support because it is $35 to get help. ...

Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac 7 0 with Windows XP Professional

3 stars (Complete PC Emulator? Not Quite.) - It does a pretty good jub running software, albeit a little slow. But on the box and in the ads it touts itself as a COMPLETE PC emulator. What it doesn't say anywhere in the documentation is that there is no firewire support for devices other than reading and writing to HDs. Complete? Not Quite Microsoft. 1 stars (Lack Of Resources) - The problem with this software is video streaming and games. Almost all games and video need a minimum of 32Mb for video. The max this software can do is 16Mb. So, if you are using this jsut for office applications than this is the software for you. If your trying to use games and stream video for surveillance purposes from a pc based dvr with a remote access software it is impossible because you need the 32Mb of video minimum. 4 stars (good but slow on certain tasks) - It is a good product I have not had to put it through all of its paces. Having written that I did see poor performance on websites that are heavy in games. My youngest was on [...]and the game was slow in comparasion to OS X. ...

Microsoft Virtual PC for Mac 7 0 with Windows XP Home

5 stars (Virtual PC for MAC OSX) - This is an amazing program. It worked even better then I had hoped. I love Amazon.com because my items always arrive on time and are always what I thought they were. 1 stars (Waste of money) - This software arrives with little content....the implication in the descripton (at least to me) was that it included most, if not all, of Microsoft's XP. Not true at all....typical Microsoft ripoff. Plus won't accept uploads from Mac disk drive. All in all, a total waste of time and money. 1 stars (More or Less, It Works) - I use Virtual PC on a PowerBook G-4 with 512M of memory; running under Tiger. Updated to 7.2 via Microsoft website. In the 3-4 weeks that I have used it, the program had crashed the Mac about 6 or 7 times; each time I had to force a power off via the power switch. I also found that "save state" tends to cause the crash more often. The speed was acceptable for programs like Quicken, but probably not for games. I suggest that anyone interested in this program check out the Virtual PC forum on Apple website for comments, etc... before buying. ...
