    I want to get a powerbook however one program requires me to run windows, I hear VPC is to slow and not worth it with XP, is there any other alternatives to allow me to run this program I need from windows on a mac? Thanks for your help. I would hate one program from preventing me from getting a powerbook.[?]

    Here's a couple links that I hope helps. You can also try doing a search for Windows Emulators in Google, it should give you some more links.
