[muglo] Re: Mac will run Windows

 From another list that I'm on: A better solution to running Windows on  
an Intel Mac:

Parallels released their Windows virtualization solution for the Intel  
Mac today. The product is called Parallels Workstation 2.1 Beta and a  
free fully functional copy is available for download now.

Unlike Apple's Boot Camp solution which was released yesterday,  
Parallels solution allows you to run Windows XP (and other Intel-based  
operating systems) from within Mac OS X. Rebooting or Dual Booting is  
not required. This allows users to maintain their daily environment  
while also being able to use any desired Windows applications. It is  
only available for the Intel Macs and should provide near-native  
performance.
Parallels Workstation 2.1 Beta for Mac OS X is NOT simply a "dual-boot"  
solution; rather, it empowers users the ability to use Windows, Linux  
and any other operating system at the same time as Mac OS X, enabling  
users to enjoy the comfort of their Mac OS X desktop while still being  
able to use critical applications from other OSes.
Parallels appears to be taking advantage of the Intel Virtualization  
Technology which was included in the Intel Yonah processors that are  
now shipping in the Intel Macs.

While in free Beta testing at the moment, the final software package  
for Linux and Windows is priced from the company at $49.99.
