There are plenty of comparison tables floating around on the NG's, with
various perceptions.

Personally, I have been using VirtualPC since Connectix days, and works very
well.
Less power hungry then VMWare for sure.
I recall using a device, which just had a Winduh's driver, we were able to
run it on an iMac using Virtual Pc, where OS X could identify the device via
the VPc layer.

Am yet to upgrade to the VPc'2005 beta lying in my MSDN cd's, the first
major upgrade,ever since Microsoft bought Connectix.

I use VPc for running an old Caledra tux, Fedora, Dos 6.22, Win95 and Win98
on my XP box.
