It's not expensive, you just have to have Win 7 Pro, then download and 
install the Virtual PC and XP (free).

Which is fine, but you're left with an unnecessarily complex setup that 
has to be maintained on multiple machines.  I can guarantee you that 
many/most of the users will NOT comprehend the 'virtual PC' that they're 
running on.

Why not just install the 32-bit version of Win 7 that comes on the same 
CD and run your FP-DOS like you have been on XP?  If worst comes to 
worst, you can always install the 64-bit instead and add the Virtual-XP 
setup.  Maybe not many people are running 32-bit Win 7, but not many 
people are running FP-DOS, either!

Given two choices, pick the simpler one.
