Virtual PC 2007 is free. Mostly, does the same thing, no?

The most recent entry on this site is from 2007. Is that really the last time apple fucked up? I doubt it.

#5 it still highlights some defects, dunno why it hasn't been updated in ages too, I was wondering as well
if that site was updated more regularly, it would be much more fun to change the homepage of the iMacs at Bestbuy to that site

in terms of hardware compatibility, Mac is probably the very worst. Software compatibility is really an issue of the programmer -- when 90% of the world uses Windows, it just can't be helped.
Personally, I will always go with Linux.

Macs are so compatible these days that you can set up your Mac to run Windows or Linux easily. After all, Macs are now using Intel microprocessors and standard PC-type hardware. There isn't much of a hardware difference anymore.

So I'm thinking of buying one of the recent netbook deals, reformatting it to run MacOSX, getting this Fusion deal and loading it to run Windows within MacOSX, then putting VirtualBox on the Windows virtual machine, running Linux within that, and then using MacOnStick to run Mac OS 7 within the Linux virtual machine. I could probably take it further, but that would just be moronic, right?

hey, anyone want to pay me $29 for things that are free online?
jesus. this is a total scam and a half, may as well get virtualpc for free. Or I don't know, find an open source solution? There are plenty.

You get what you pay for (most of the time). There's a reason why the other products are for free.
