I tried running Visio 2000 on Virtual PC on my Powerbook G3 - that's my
primary machine at work. It was too quirky to get anything done in an
efficient manner. I have 300+MB of ram so that should have been fine - but
my experience with Visio is that it is quirky anyway and add to that a less
than stable Virtual PC and it made for more frustration than it was worth.
I ended up getting a PC for Visio.
