Ok, I bought my first Mac ever last week. I picked up a MacBook Pro 15" with all the trimmings. When I was in the apple store, I played around with their virtualization product and wasn't very impressed. When I ordered my Mac, I went ahead and threw in an order for Fusion. For $60 or whatever it cost me, I didn't think I could go wrong. My Mac came, I installed Fusion and am thoroughly impressed. What a great application. Its everything that VMWare Workstation is, plus more. Running XP on my Mac is working out great. I don't have to worry about buying any MS Office for Mac products. I can work in Outlook, and not have to mess with using Exchange with Apple Mail or Microsoft Entourage. It all in all rocks. The only issue that I have is with the Unity feature set. It isn't quite there, but I am sure that by version 2.0 they will make running Windows apps as seamless as firing off Mac apps.
