No, Virtual PC 2004 only runs on a 32bit host OS.

VPC does not run on an x64 host. Virtual Server 2005 R2 does but does not
support x64 guests. VMWare Workstation 5.5 runs on an x64 host and does
support x64 guests.

And this, along with the extremely great and usefull snapshot feature +
dual CPU support in VMWare 5.5, is the reason why I use VMWare 10 times
more often than VPC at the moment, waiting egerly for something to happen
with VPC so I can revert back to a more stable system with a way better
user interface :)

So a snapshot feature, dual CPU (or core) support for guest and 64-bit
capabilities are what I really hope for in a comming VPC.
