i have used virtual pc (not the latest version from ms, but the previous one from connectix) on a mac running osX/9.2 and it *only* ran under 9.2. last i looked the version from ms was not certified for osX.3. the older version was slowish on a g4, but useful nevertheless. and made me curse the instability of windows. have some spare virtual machines on hand in case your main one gets bolluxed up. ---tad.
