I was playing-around with VPC and had both v6.0 (Connectix's last version) and v6.1 (µsoft's first version). Used the SAME drive capsule (Windows 2k) on each version (two identical capsules so that one wouldn't be affected by the other).

v6.0 connected to one of my other Macs with no problems and browsing the Apache server with Explorer had no problems.

v6.1 started hammering-out calls to some IP which turned out to be a µsoft site which slowed its startup until it figured it wasn't getting anywhere.

"...improved microsoft version."
You so funny!

V6.1 was basically Connectix product with some MS pasted on. The new, improved Microsoft version that is 30% faster is V7 which was rewritten with the G5 in mind.
