iEmulator
Jun 24 2008

FLUJO  I was a bit sceptical at first: how come this bit of software is so much more affordable than other commercial emulators? Whats the catch? Also, I am mainly working with Adobe After Affects (only got a Windows license), which eats up all my iMacs ressources. But my fears were unfounded: despite a slow windows install (but that could be due to a scratched CD), all my multimedia apps (incl. AE) were rendering just fine *thumbs up*

iEmulator

FLUFFYBUM  I'm willing to give iemulator a try after my Experience with Qemu.

Anyone wanting to try Qemu on a 2005 - G5 dual 2ghz powermac with 4 gb ram should not even bother wasting your time.

I installed Qemu on my G5, and then installed Windows XP PRO SP2, allowed it 768mb ram and allocated a generous amount of HD space.

Windows took 24hours to install, then after installation and windows configuration, it was the slowest response speed, like 10min wait per task action. Totally unacceptable and unable to do any task without waiting for EVER for task processing.

DON'T USE QEMU for 'non intell' G5 power macs.

IT WILL BE A TOTAL WASTE OF YOUR TIME

and you won't find much help getting support for your problems.

iemulator at least has technical support, but after I set up my system with iemulator I'll leave an honest comment about it.
