<<I didn't know that v2.0 of Virtual PC was out, and I paid $150 >>

Yes, I saw it in MacMall for $49.95 for the version that comes with DOS. Like I say, why pay $150 if you already have the Windows software to load on it.

I have standard Win95 and Win NT on CD. Once Virtual PC is installed, I just installed that into the partition allocated for the "C:" drive.

I think version 2.0 addresses faster emulation and better compatibility.

Hey $50 bucks is a steal for those who want to run a few Windows Application but don't want to spend a thousand or so for an Intel processor board. I frankly just want it to play Mech Warrior 2. (I bought the Windows version a few months before the Mac version came out. It's the only game I actually ever spent money on.)
