Can anyone please tell me when there will be better support for graphics in
Virtual PC? I really can't understand why this hasn't been added yet, as the
WinFX framework has been available for some time, and I am certain that there
are a lot of people who are developing on that framework on there VPCs, or
would really like to.

Can someone please tell me when this will feature will be implemented? And
if not, what is the reason?

Thank you,
Jaco

So what you basically saying is, sorry no hardware acceleration support in
Virtual PC. So how is Virtual PC going to support Vista? (Yes you can
install it, but the speed it runs at is of no use).

The speed of Windows Vista has nothing to with hardware acceleration. I'm
sure when Windows Vista is released, there will be updated Additions to
support Windows Vista. It's the same like it was with Virtual Server. Only
the R2 Version Supports Windows XP with SP2 or Windows Server 2003 SP1.
Until the release of Virtual Server 2005 Microsoft released updated
additions to Support WIndows Server 2003 with SP1.
