just came across this Virtual-PC-6 and its for mac os 9 too
this could be great for running small exe files on os9
does anyone have experience with this?

Yes, runs very well. Especially with windows 2000, but I found a few "keygens" that need XP. It has the performance of a pentium 2 at around half of the Mhz of the mac where is installed.

Hi,

I have used it for running windows 98 only applications. Works great as long as you don't try to use it with external hardware. Drivers don't work properly.

I can upload Virtual PC Version 4 if you guys want... like mactron I also use it for keygens (Like the Native Instruments keygens) with a Win 98 Image (I can upload that also); even if you need to run a keygen written for a PC and the keygen is loaded with Trojans, after you run the keygen for your needed serial number, you simply delete the HD image and copy back an original non-tainted one... so it is a good idea to always have a virgin HD image file kept as a backup and copy it eveytime you need to start over... only takes 2 mouse drags... no reinstalling Windoze  :D
