Can this actually run OSX under a Windows XP host?
No, not at all.
The idea seems like an inexpensive way to try it out.
Were that it was that simple. Virtual PC allows a G5 to emulate a Pentium chip in software. The prior attempts, Cherry PC et al., to allow a P4 to emulate a G3 were pathetic. This is one reason why the switch to Intel surprised many people, myself included.
I wonder what people are using the 2000 under XP solution for as I see no benefit to that at all.
I am a little unclear myself. But it would, for example, allow a developer to test an application on both environments with a single PC without dual booting and partitions.
