This post is for people with new AluBooks (15" or 17"), and who use Virtual PC:
Can you take a screen video (video of your screen) of opening Virtual PC and running a few programs? I'm just looking for a minute long video, to see how fast it <I>really</I> is (I'm sick of speculating).
I don't have time to go to an Apple Store and test it out...the nearest one is too far away.
Thanks!
P.S. Virtual PC running Windows XP, with Classic GUI (not that hyped up Luna GUI) is preferred  ...

If you need fast performance, you best look at Microsoft Remote Desktop. VPC will obviously ever be able to compete with this solution (not at this solution is perfect for everybody, it's just clearly the fastest)

I use Remote Desktop to access my PC from school, and while the processing is fast (as I'm accessing a fast computer), the refresh rate of images and the like is horrible beyond belief...I believe that while VPC processing is slow as hell, it still has a normal refresh rate.
Anyway, that doesn't help much...I still want my video of Virtual PC!
