Anyone else notice that the Apples with their funky designs and great 
usability, are starting to be touted for how much better they
are with INTEL CPU's & the ability to easily run PC applications ;-)
I'll just borrow from Don here, see the smilie, see the smilie.

A quite impressive virtual machine that lets you run any OS I could  
think of in a window in OS X
No need to partition the hard drive or reboot as is the case with  
Boot Camp.
Well worth the $80 to me.
And you can use any windows version, no need to use a new full  
install disc.
