I have been trying to get the VPC trial version to work on my G4 PB.
After reading here I understand why it has not worked, it is for PC's
only.
If I had a pc why would I need VPC?
This makes no sense to me at all.
And is there any way to try VPC before spending the $200 to find out if
the apps I want to use will work? I am new to this whole VPC concept.

There is no trial version of VPC for Mac. The only trial version of
VPC offered is for Windows.

No, you need to buy it to try it. There is a 30 day money back
guarantee.

If you want to know if your apps will work, simply post them here and
it's likely someone uses or tried to use them.

Anything that needs 3D acceleration, like Windows games, isn't going
to work under VPC.

You can only run one OS at a time on a physical PC. With virtual PC you
can run several OSes side by side, or simulate a network of PCs. VPC
for Windows is basically a competitor of VMWare.

I am running VPC 7 with Windows XP on my G4 and trying to run my midi
keystation 49e. The device is listed and checked in the Apple side and
also VPC. The device is checked in Device Manager in Windows....but not

listed. It does not recognize the USB connection in Windows, I thought
I would try a USB to Serial Adapter, but which one do I need for my G4
(v=2)? Can anyone advise? The keyboard is usb2 and the G4 is
usb/firewire
