You have to ask?

And FYI, the new Mac G5 won't be able to run Virtual PC until well into 
2004. And people wonder why Microsoft bought Virtual PC. :-)

Just kidding. It's just a problem with the fact that the IBM PPC 970 
chips don't do virtual little endian like G3s and G4s. It will take a 
massive rewriting of VPC to run on G5s. There are alternatives popping 
up. (Bochs, etc.).
