No, any version of XP purchased with VPC won't run on Intel Macs because
the disks cannot boot XP. The version of XP sold with all releases of
VPC is an OEM version that is only licensed for VPC and will only run on
VPC. It's not bootable media. That's why it was cheaper to buy VPC
with XP than buying VPC and XP stand-alone.

You pays your money, you makes your choices.

I FAQ would be nice, but only 10% of new posters actually read them.
And, this newsgroup will slowly die off...which it already has started
to do.

But, I have put a new blog entry here:
