I would like to run Win2k on my new mac (because i have a gba flasher that only works for pc and i hate having to go to my pc to do it), so i would need a vitual pc program that would be able to detect and use that usb device, is that possible?

Just as you explained it, it will work you just need VPC.

You said the name yourself! Virtual PC

will it be able to use my usb device?

answered my own question http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/virt...?pid=highlights

I was considering buying a GBA flasher, but no native OSX support turned me off. I'll wait untill one is coded.

It's cool that VPC can make use of peripherals connected to the mac though. Didn't know that feature existed

whats virtual pc like? is a resonabley fast?

Its.. ok, i ran a stripped down XP Pro w/ a TI-89 EMU for my math final, and it was decent on a 800 MHz iBook, your not going to bo able to do anything amazingly spectacular with it.

Reasonably fast considering..

I wasn't able to use my web cam however
