I tried VutualBox, and it worked great. I set up the vurtual hard
drive, and then popped the windows CD in, installed it and bingo! Got
a little window running XP home. I'm still going to try installing
using Boot Camp, since I'll probably use it for running PC games on my
mac, and I'm not sure how well that would work through VB.
If you don't need super-fancy features from your emulator, I would
suggest VBox, since it's free. Can't beat that!
