I have VPC6/WinXP Pro, which I run on a beleaguered iBook G3-500.  The
speed, though, isn't so much a concern as the amount of disk it THINKS
it needs.  Gigs and gigs... which I don't really want to spare.  I didn't

purpose.  Since VPC is not compatible with the G5 yet, ...

launch VPC, it requests the administrator's login name & password so

I made the smart and bold decision to chuck my pathetic Windows system and
get a cool PowerMac G5 desktop, loaded. But when I stepped into the Apple
Store armed with my credit card, the sales rep shook his head when I said I
