[CUBE] virtual pc 6

[Gary Archer]

Yes, quite legal to just get the Dos version and use your own Windows
copy -- as an aside the Server version seem to work better -- so if you
have a copy of Windows 2000 server try that.  If you can find a version
without dos even cheaper then get that one.

I use VPC 5.02 on my 450 Cube and it works pretty well -- I wonder if
VPC 6 takes better advantage of multi-processors??  A dual 1.2 in my
cube with VPC 6 would give me no reason to keep my Intel clone.

Anyone tried this on a cube?  is the performance acceptable?  will it 
even run?
(the connectix website lists a 500 MHz processor as the minimum --
so I'm curious if/how it runs on a 450 cube).

Also,  I've noted that connectix sells VPC with various copies of Dos 
and windows.
Am I right that if I already have a spare (yes it's legal :) copy of 
windows I can get the cheaper dos version and install my copy of 
windows on it instead?
