you are missing the point. All that is happening is prolonging the life of
the virtual PC I created on my old G4 through the use of VPC and the embedded
windows version. I now have an Intel-based Mac (and I really don't use the G4
any more), VPC has gone up in flames (because it stunk to begin with), and
Parallels is allowing me to continue what I started some years ago. The main
reason I did this is because I do web design and development and needed an
efficient way to test web pages on MSIE directly from my Mac, which is still
my main objective. Sometimes I test HTML emails on Outlook as well. Nothing
more.

Helpful Harry and other regulars in this newsgroup have a point in that
you observe the licensing terms of the products you have purchased.

Remember, you implicitly AGREE to use the software under the specified terms
if you do as much as open the product packaging, install it and use it.

If you have questions about your license of Virtual PC and the version of
Windows that has come with it (if you purchased a Virtual PC/Windows bundle),
please contact Microsoft Licensing. They have the ultimate say (in writing)
in what you can and can't do with the product licensed to you.
