Some of us really do need to dual-boot, for whatever reason (mine is for audio production under OS X (until Harrison Mixbus is available in a Linux version) and everything else under Linux; OS X on VMware Workstation is to say the least unsupported.....). And, in one of my posts, I mentioned that the interchange was for VM's between Linux VMware WorkStation and OS X WMware Fusion......yeah, you really can do that, I run WinXP/2000/7 and other things under both, and with pinned MAC addresses no activation complaints.... Is it ugly? Sure; but it meets the need.
