Some of you may have picked up on my post about Bootcamp which will enable you to run WinXP on a Mac (Intel Mac only) but a new product has just been released which will enable you to run Windows apps (inc. games!) under OSX WITHOUT installing Windows (again Intel Mac's only), the key thing is it does not use emulation (unlike VMWare) to achieve this. Note: it's currently beta but apparently works well already, Links:

I am also thinking about a new PC. I went to my local Apple dealer and had a look at the Mac Intel. Yes, its a lovely design. Since all of my software is Microsoft based I had a hard time justifying the Mac. Its much more expensive than the top of the line Windows. I'll wait a while for a Mac that will run Microsoft software, just to make sure they got it right.
