What would run Virtual PC 6.1 Good and be cheap?

Would an eMac with a 1Ghz - 512 MB - 32MB Video Card work? $999.00

I wana at least be able to run a Unreal Tournament Editor fine in it!!! (3D Level Editor)

(The Origanal Unreal Tournament 1999)

Would that work well and run well?

PS: The 512MB I already have to add from the 256 that the computer comes with!!!

From the performance of WinXP that I have experienced on my DA-G4733, I don't think your computer would be able to run the UT Editor without hickups.

The other problem is that VPC does not take advantage of graphics hardware acceleration (note to Pros in the field: correct me if I'm wrong), therefore probably making running the UT Editor close to impossible.
