My understanding is the VPC7 doesn't bring any remarkable speed improvements to the table. One general way of describing VPC is to say that it emulates a PC process 1/4th the speed of your Mac's processor. This is, of course, a very unscientific description and both speed and perception of speed will vary on a case-by-case basis.

If this software that doesn't require a lot of intense number crunching, VPC would work fine. Most business-type software works well in VPC. Also, if you like the idea of taking your "PC" with you wherever you go, VPC would be great.

The quality of this board depends on the quality of the posts. The only way to guarantee thoughtful, informative discussion is to write thoughtful, informative posts. AppleNova is not a real-time chat forum. You have time to compose messages and edit them before and after posting.
