I'll place a hefty bet that Microsoft will kill off VPC when OSX Intel
hits the markets..
Just IMHO,

attempting to use VPC for anything strenuous, so I'm back to default
settings and running acceptably. Sometimes less is more?
It's interesting that VirtualPC will not even LET you assign more than
512 MB to it, even if you have 2GB or more of RAM attached.
It has long been my belief that Microsoft wants a *crippled* VirtualPC
to exist and hasn't killed it off because it's a nice piece of change
for them but will never let it be anything more than crippled because
otherwise it would be a threat.
