umm... i just want to let you know that if your computer is not compatible with windows xp, than the virtual computer wont be either! ... in fact it will be slower than your normal one too.

It might be possible, But there is no way you will be able to use 3D games or fast video on an emulated OS. It's just a waste of Apple speed and your money, even if you succeed. Try to find a PC case that looks like a Mac :).
Finish the problem

Don't expect to run XP at a good speed, it's always slower, and if your PC isn't that fast don't expect it to be usable :/
The previous sentence is false. The following sentence is true.

if u want to run windows xp, you might as well upgrade windows to xp, since you would have to buy a paid copy to run it on VMWare anyway.
