Has anyone had success running Visual Studio 2003 on a Quad G5 using Virtual PC? I need to find some real-life stats on performance while debugging, Intellisense, etc.

I am a M$ who recently fell in love with the Mac platform. I am trying to move to the platform but still need to support my existing .NET applicaitons. I am trying to use a PowerBook 1.67 Ghz with VirtualPC & VS.NET and it is painful. I WANT to buy a new Quad G5, but need to understand how it will handle out of the box.

You might also see if Apple introduces an Intel-based Mac on Jan 7. If they do, it may well permit installation of Windows on a second partition, and you've got everything in one computer.


Of course, they might introduce some new iPod cases and you're out of luck. But it's less than two weeks, so it might be worth it to just wait and see if anything new emerges.

Failing that, I agree with the sentiments expressed so far that Windows development work is best done on a Windows machine unless you're really boxed in a corner, even if it's a relatively low-end Windows box.
