VPC XP Pro on a PC?

I have Virtual PC with Windows XP Pro. My Mac Powerbook G4 died (and
Virtual PC was worthless on it anyway). Can I use this XP Pro disk on one of
my real PC's? Thanks in advance.

In a word, no. The Windows license for VPC is an OEM license
specifically for use only with VPC, which was why it was cheaper than
buying a commercial copy of XP Pro and installing that on a "bare" copy
of VPC (i.e. one sold without an OS, just the VPC application).

Even if you didn't care about the license, the disks won't boot Windows
as they're Macintosh HFS disks.

Buy a copy of Windows.
