Guest PC is an emulator of the x86 PC for the Mac OS X platform. We had a quick look at the product and we compared it to VirtualPC 6.1 that we also happened to have in-house.

The only Windows package that I would like to be able to run on my 1.6Ghz G5 iMac is Sage Accounts (small business version, I forget the exact name as it's really for my wife).
Would Guest PC be OK for this sort of package, assuming a guest OS of Win98SE and iMac memory of 512Mb?
What's the memory footprint of the actual emulation suite compared to VPC?
Also, has anyone tried loading eComStation on it? How did that go?
