Re: VPC on a g4 12inch..

[Andrew]

I have VPC 6.1 on my 12" 1GHz with Windows 2000 installed.  It is a bit 
slow at times, but I've only got 384MB on my Mac (until my 512MB module 
arrives from Crucial tomorrow).  I use it for Internet Explorer 6, 
which is required by one website I use for school, and to install music 
on my Sony MiniDisc, which lacks Macintosh support.

Just for kicks I installed "Age of Empires, and surprise of surprises, 
it runs pretty well and is VERY playable.

Im thinking of trading in my PC box for VPC, and using it on a g4 12in 
powerbook DVI, does anyone here have any experience with the speed of 
VPC on this platform for basic things? (I only need it for a few 
Programs that dont run on Mac, mostly simple things, and the 
occasional webpage that balks at a non Winxp machine)
