I also use an iMac 266, and Virtual PC works fairly well on most 
brand name (read that as M$oft) office-type software.  However, I
have found the speed reduction on some games that I play is only
equal to about a 486-66, and the sounds are NOWHERE near the same.
I use MSDOS a lot, and there is simply no substitute for a bonafide
PC for the applications and games I have.  Yet, the software and
games written for iMac just runs rings around the PC, and never had
a hangup.
