Best OS for Virtual PC 6?

[orthodoc]

Any ideas on which operating system (XP Home, Win 2K, etc.) runs the smoothest/fastest with virtual pc 6? Thanks. :)

What Mac do you have?

Good question. I have a 1 GHz TiBook with 512 MB of Ram. Thanks.

win2k is probably going to be the best system to run for any computer. just turn off all unnecessary services and tweak your registry a bit. if i were you i would upgrade my RAM if you are going to be using VPC a good bit. You would probably want to give win2k 384MB of your RAM.

I find that 98 runs the fastest but I run 2000 for compatablilty reasons. 2000 works pretty good. I havent tried XP in a long time but man.. it was dam slow when It frist came out and I had VPC5. Compleetly unusable. Maybe Ill give it another try with VPC6.

I run windows 2000 with vpc and it runs well. XP seems to be sluggish but 2k runs good. 98 runs well too but i prefer win2k cause its a better operating system all the way around.
