You could always try Q: http://www.kju-app.org/. I find it unbearably
slow but it is free. I thought VirtualBox was allergic to Plan 9 but I
might try again now that I know what the problem is and how to work
around it.
The Parallels site is here: http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
but they want $80 (or $50, if you're merely upgrading). I hate to
recommend it because of their indifference (sometimes bordering on
hate) towards their customers but it does seem to be the fastest Mac
Plan 9 emulator I've had success with so far. As I said before,
Windows is about their only interest, if that's is something you need
on your Mac.
