looking to virtual box a new system

[Spyder]

gonna get a mac in the near future, so im going to copy all my files over on an external and then to the new mac.

im currently using an XP PC, so i know that will implode any time now. i have good antivirus but you know...

looking to run 8.1 in a virtual box type deal, because i really dont think my desktop can handle 8, ive searched some links, and even tried VB'ing a hackintosh and it hasnt worked, anyone got an 8.1 hack they know is reliable?
