You are talking about installing in a virtual machine!!! XP on my home pc takes about 40 minutes. With virtual pc on my pc (yes, it works; even the virtual hd's are compatible with the mac version) it takes almost 2,5 hours. Comparing the install of a emulated system with a native system is of course not going to work especially when a different cpu is used!!
