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. Why anyone would install XP on an Apple box is beyond me, but, go for it. If it makes my stock price go up. Have at it.
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.
