Hello W,
Well, all I will add here is that Win2kPro runs great in VPC on a
Ti-Book. Very stable, and by virtue of the 'saved state' created when
closing down VPC, it re-launches much faster on the Mac than on most
PCs. Plus, you get that 'eerie' bonus of seeing the MS logo, and
whatnot, coming up on a Mac screen. But, seriously, it's stable, and
if you use XP instead of Win2k you also have full drag-and-drop
between the MS OS and X. Very handy.
