My computer died, so I'm in the market for a new one. I figure I'd
like to get back into hacking on Plan 9 so I plan to install it

7 Pro with Virtual PC, but I think I'd prefer Xen or one of the
Linux-based things (VirtualBox, etc.).
Ease of installation is important, as is the ability to run a somewhat
normal (Windows or Linux) host OS. Are there any recommendations?
vmware, the rest just suck, qemu and virtual box being
the slowest
How about Xen? Has anyone here had luck wit it?

Years ago i had run Plan9 inside Xen and wrote even some tutorial how to
set it up. After finding out, that
filesystem performance was very bad i stopped perusing that project, so
i can't tell how it'd go with current
Xen.
