I couldn't help but notice that the guest operating systems are limited to
various Windows flavours and OS/2.
Does this mean that it's not possible to run for instance (K)ubuntu in MS
Virtual PC, or that it's not supported?

I've heard it's possible to configure virtual pc to use Linux, but it's
not officially supported.

When VPC was owned by Conetrix (sp?) it supported a wide variety of OS's
... but since MS bought it, they removed a fair amount of functionality
(and, I'm told, performance).
