They are different pieces of software but they effectively do the same 
thing. Both allow you to create virtual machines that run on your desktop 
inside of your current host OS.

I used VMware years ago when I did Linux on my desktop/laptop. Now that 
Linux only lives on my servers and OS X is my primary desktop OS, I use 
Virtual PC. I found both to be excellent products. The last time I 
dual-booted was the mid-90's and I was thrilled to kiss that practice 
goodbye forever. Virtual machines are very good stuff.
