Hi:

I used to use VM Fusion on my Intel Mac, and this would emulate Windows 2000
very smoothly.

Now I've got an M1 Mac, this doesn't work, and it seems VM Fusion on Siicon
will only run Windows 11, which is no use to me.

Is there any way of emulating Windows 2000 on a Silicon Mac?

(Expecting the answer no.)

I just about managed to get a Windows XP emulation running on UTM a while
back on my M1 MBP but it ran rather slowly. Without trying it I suspect you
could get Windows 2000 to run too on UTM but its speed may be unacceptable.

I will always love the false image I had of you.
