I'm sure the drivers are pretty beta as well. You've got apple software engineers writing windows drivers for hardware that has never been supported in windows before. Either way, this is more of a PR move than anything - dual booting is kinda dumb. What I want (as a mac user) and what almost every other mac user that I know needs is a full-speed virtual windows a la Virtual PC.

Or I need fully functional, native versions of the apps I need to use for Mac OS... Which is never going to happen, so a full speed virtual PC would be second best.
Personally I don't understand that, people aren't clamoring for Apple hardware, why pay all that money for Intel hardware with an Apple logo on it just to run a virtualized Windows session? Seems to me that it would make sense to just spend the money on standard PC hardware. I was under the impression that OSX was the big "advantage point" for most Mac users.


I would think it would be just the opposite and people would want OSX that could run natively on standard PC hardware.
