Comment (by HaikuReactOSTrac):

 I just tried R1/aplha3, and it performed worse. the pointer was still
 sluggish during
 Install, and after rebooting, it was locked up completely. And after
 resetting the virtual machine, it refused to boot at all, but repeated
 resets made it boot again. the cursor was still laggy, and running
 GLTeapot still froze the cursor. VMware has a couple of free products, But
 registration is required to download them, and all of VMware's products
 are Closed source. I use Virtualbox, which is open source, and is faster
 than VMware and Virtual PC. Haiku runs very well in Virtualbox. I think it
 may be 2 things that cause Haiku to lag.

 1. Virtual PC is slower than VMware and Virtualbox

 2. Virtual PC's Emulated Video card (S3 Trio), may not be fully supported,
 which may also   be why Haiku is in 15 bit color by default when run in
 Virtual PC.
