The difference is the John McIntosh VM is a fat binary who can work in PPC or x86 machines, the VMs of Elliot are only for Intel macs, both are Carbon; the Esteban Lorenzano VM is Cocoa.

Because of the PPC/x86 requirements you need Xcode 3.1 (for OSX 10.5) or Xcode 3.2 (10.6), apart from that use similar VMMaker and build procedures.
