Right.  There are only a couple of apps that are Windows only that  
I'd like to have.  Unfortunately, while one of them could run on any  
$299 Windows box, the other one couldn't- it's a music app that would  
require a high quality machine.  While I'd have to buy a MacIntel,  
I'll wind up buying one eventually anyway, and this way I don't have  
to buy an additional pricey computer. I think it's a really cool step  
forward.  Better than something like Virtual PC which I considered in  
the past but rejected for the more computing intensive apps.
