Several sites have pointers to a hands-on review of Connectix' VirtualPC, the PC Windows emulation program for the Mac.

The review is very favorable.

From Brian Combs, PCC WebMaster:

"Power Computing's cool, and often times wacky, Summer of Power promotions continue, Monday, June 23rd with one more overwhelmingly popular PowerHour!

For one hour only between 12-1 P.M. Central Time, Power Computing will offer customers two incredible deals:

o The MacUser/Macworld Product of the Year, the PowerTower Pro 225 Core, featuring 1MB L2 cache, 16x CD-ROM, 6 PCI slots and 9 Drive Bays. For this one time offer you can upgrade to 128MB RAM for FREE (two 64MB DIMMs) for just $3195 and will add a Pair of Labtec Speakers (retail value $99). Just imagine your productivity using Photoshop, Quark, Illustrator and yes, even Microsoft Word, with that amount of RAM power. Be a master, not a slave to your computer

o The award-winning PowerCenter Pro 180 featuring the exclusive 60MHz bus, 1MB L2 Cache, UltraSCSI Hard Drive, 3D Acceleration and a 16X CD-ROM. For one time only upgrade to a whopping 64MB of RAM for Free (one 64MB DIMMs) for just $1,995.

Buyers must call the Power Computing PowerHour Hotline at 800-952-9246 or order online at www.powercc.com between 12-1p.m. CST. Domestic U.S. Orders only. DON'T MISS THIS CHANCE. THIS IS THE FINAL POWERHOUR FOR A LONG TIME TO COME."

Apple has opened a new Tech Info Library page.
