A VM in the sense of Parallels Workstation is not emulation in the VPN meaning of it. Parallels is a pseudo-hypervisor environment that uses the VT extensions of the CoreDuo to run the guest OS unmodified. The VT extensions set tears down a big barrier to modern hypervisors like Xen from being adopted.
Lot's of us have to live in a cross platform world. The implications in the server space are profound and virtualization is a major effort underway across enterprises of most any size. Now we can play that game too.
