MS VPC 2004 runs 5048 quite well, [Albeit slowly]. However, it looks terrible until the 'Virtual Machine Additions are installed.

I think VMware (4 or 5) should work with longhorn.

VMware v5.02+ does the job pretty good. then install your regular drivers. works great for me.

@Blam-O

You mean VirtualPC 5.02 (pre Microsoft)?
The latest VMWare Workstation version is 5.0.0 Build 13124
