To bad my 1.67 ghz powerbook can't take advantage of bootcamp. I was looking forward to downloading the kvs tool to my mac. The emulation software such as virtual pc are too slow and too dificult to deal with.

Well you could always run NT, since there were PPC versions of it (though they were compiled on 601 and 603s, so not sure how they work on the new 64-bit chips).
But as others have noted, XP requires an Intel-compatible CPU.
