I appreciate everybody's responses. Success seems to have been
mixed with speed the problem. (Plus problems with Red Hat.)
I think the suggestion of getting cheap machines is good, but I
have found multiboot testing to be tedious. I might try a hybrid
approach: quick checks on VPC and extensive testing on a multiboot
PC. If I get another PC (or more likely upgrade my dev Pc), I may
get VPC for the PC. Virtual machines run very fast on a PC. I
think this will be more convenient for testing than multiboot.
I get the impression that VPC will take advantage of G4 features
and of multiple processors. The help says the biggest speed
factors are processor speed and cache.
