Given what you have said, my advice would be get a powerful PC, install

virtual machine.

or just install XP on the new machine and cut out the middle man?

(seems to be adding complexity for no gain in functionality)

It's much quicker to roll back a virtual machine than it is revert to a
saved image. And if you intend using XP as your main OS, you should be
prepared to revert to original install every 3 months or so.

I was searching for a suitable response to that, but the only thing that
comes to mind is ********!
