tere was tis huge post on virtual pc .. and an argument broke down
but anyways here goes

Virtual PC is a powerful software virtualization solution that allows you to run multiple PC-based operating systems simultaneously on one workstation, providing a safety net to maintain compatibility with legacy applications while you migrate to a new operating system. It also saves reconfiguration time, so your support, development, and training staff can work more efficiently.

its used to TEST and run a very few applications that might have compatibilty issues
also to test anything else in a virtual environment without harming ur current os

it is NOT MEANT to be used as a functional OS
