    There should be Virtual PC comming out for Mac Intels sometime this year. You might even be able to run XP natively on your Mac if others figure out how to do so.

    I don't see XP being native on intel macs, unless you are elite, although vista could be a possibility. But even in an updated VPC that will (it better) come out will prolly run fairly fast since its not emulating a cpu.

    However, people are working on WINE for mac, and they have got it to run, but i don't think that they actually got it to run anything yet.
