> Or do I need to requisition a cheap Dell running windows 2000.

I would recommend getting an inexpensive Windows PC like the Dell.
I am a die-hard Mac-guy, but I would still rather buy an actual 
Windows PC for development testing.  Even if I was running the best 
virtual PC app, I would always have that voice in the back of
my mind wondering, "Yeah, but how will it run on actual PC 
hardware?"

That's my 2.18403 JPY....James

I'm coming to a point where it's imperative that we see how things look
on Windows machines. Up to now have just been "winging it." But that
won't do in the long run.

Question: Is Virtual PC on the Mac a reliable representation of the
user experience on a real PC running Windows?

Obviously there can be underlying hardware issues that Virtual PC
cannot address, but for now just the presentation, font sizes, etc. is
what i am looking for and, aside from rev presentations:  viewing web
pages in IE5-6 on Windows... to see if the CSS is rendering as
expected...

Does Virtual PC really do a good enough job? Or do I need to
requisition a cheap Dell running windows 2000. The "lo-end" Windows
user experience would be the target.

Which leads to the next question, should we test under 2000  or XP?
