You'll be waiting forever - Microsoft has killed VirtualPC for Mac, and
there will NEVER be an Intel version.

Richard has given you the links for the solutions for running Windows
applications on an Intel Mac. BootCamp reuqires you to reboot the Mac
to swap between using Windows or Mac OS X, while both VMWare and
Parallels work in a similar way to Virtual PC by running a pretend
Windows computer as an application within a Mac window.
