The screen shot below (reduced) shows my 1280x1024 Windows XP desktop (reduced to 640x512) with a 1024x768 Virtual PC window running Gentoo Linux with the KDE window manager. In the Gentoo environment is an 800x600 QEMU window running Damn Small Linux with the Fluxbox window manager. You can see one of the problems with Virtual PC. The clock in the virtual machine lags the computer clock. I captured it at 3:50 AM, but Gentoo thought it was 12:04.
