[shadow_warez]

vmware is a tool that helps ya test out new os's like linux, free bsd, windows 95to2003 within windows,

I prefer Connectix Virtual PC. Seems to have more features...

[shadow_warez]

hmm never used it,

[SupaStar]

I highly recommend it.

iv used a old mac editon lol form a friends mac 11 or what ever they were calle,d very akward program,

[SupaStar]

I think a lot has changed since the old MAC version Compare the feature list of the 2 programs and I'm sure you'll agree that the Connectix solution offers more flexibility.

Probably the only feature that VMWare has that VirtualPC doesn't, is the ability so create a sort of 'restore point' to which you can ALWAYS revert if your OS goes haywire...

yeah and hopefully it has proper detection of 3D cards, sound, nics, and other things vmware trys to make ya use thier super vga driver absolute junk, doesnt install, and doesnt work,
