And so it would seem that Apple has been busy for a while now. The past two days had marked a major leap for the apple community. Yesterday, Apple announced that they are providing a dual-boot solution (to run Windows XP) for their intel-macs. Today, Parallels released a beta version of their virtualization software for Mac OS X running on intel-macs. This is remarkable! I have always wanted to try a mac, but have never got around to (due to price and also software that I need). Now, I could get a machine that would take any operating systems I throw at. That’s what I would call bang for the bucks!
