my opinion is that it will be usable but a bit slower. also i think that windows 7 under virtualbox is a lot slower than xp or 2000. i use visual studio in order to compile binaries for my apps for windows and if feels a bit sluggish. but after all, the same visual studio on normal (non emulated machine) is slow as hell so i think that's no big difference for me ;) i have never used photoshop or any program of that kind so i don't have experience, sorry.
Thanks for reply. And what about printing and scaning? I mean if printers and scanners works normal on virtualized xp. I seriously think about using windows only in wirtualmachine.
screen size? do You mean window$ screen size? i installed guest additions and then needed to click 'Auto-scale guest' (or RightCtrl-G) in the running machine :) hope that helps ;)
hmm as far as i'm converned, there is such thing as bootcamp for mac - maby this would be better for You? i also recommend nLite - it's really great tool ;)
What apps do you use in xp virtualized? Sony Vegas or Adobe Premiere would be usable?
