Actually, not always correct. PC magazine gave the Mac the award for the best
PC platform.:) Windows runs very stable under VMWare and in fact as stable as
windows usually is which admittedly isn’t hugely stable. My employer runs
hundreds of virtualized windows environments in a huge cluster. In 2013
there’s no real specific advantage to running software in a dedicated verses
virtualized environment.
