Virtual box is definitely the best. Virtual PC 2007 could not install openSUSE 11. In Virtual Box it runs great. The only flaw I have found so far is that the "virtual" video card does not accept 24bit but that's minor because the view is fine. 
try the new version - supposed to have added in some 3D acceleration!

NAT: fixed a crash on attempt to process ICMP datagram under some circumstances (bug #10527)
Host-only Networking: lifted the maximal number of interfaces to 128 on Linux and Mac OS X hosts (there is no such limitation for Solaris and Windows hosts)
EFI: fixed wrong SEC/PEI Core entry point calculation (bug #10531)
VRDP: fixed a display update problem (bug #10503)
Main: set the proper VM state if savestate failed for some reason (bug #6189)
Main: more useful error message if a medium is inaccessible
VBoxManage: fixed controlvm savestate if the VM is already paused
Mac OS X hosts: addressed issues running on Mountain Lion Preview 3 (bug #10267)

Linux hosts: fixed wrong help path in some rpm-based packages (bug #10418)
Guest Additions: fixed handling of custom environment variables during VBoxManage guestcontrol execute (bug #10581)
Windows Additions: fixed guest driver crash of VBoxSF in certain cases (4.1.10 regression, bug #10408)
Windows Additions: don't load the WDDM driver if 3D support is not available for Windows 8 guests to keep the guest maintainable in that case (still better to miss some features than providing a blank screen)
Solaris Additions: added support for X.org Server 1.11 and 1.12
VMM: fixed a Guru Meditation VERR_ACCESS_DENIED with certain guests (bugs #7589, #8247)
