Yea. One of the biggest problems with Macs in an office
environment is that there are a LOT of required apps that are
Windows-only. Running them on a Mac, under a PC emulator (if they
run at all), is a horrible experience - abysmally slow, crashy,
etc. And IT departments sure don't want to put both a Mac and a
PC on someone's desk. Being able to switch-boot Macs into a full-
speed full-featured Windows will be a boon for Macs in those
environments.
I won't be suprized to see many office Macs running Windows
normally, then booted into OS X temporarily/periodically just to
run specialized apps.
And within a year, I hope to see some virtualization software
become available - so you can have both OS X and Windows running
at the same time...

Personally, I'd like to know why this discussion is even going on
here. By definition this list is for discussion of G-processor
based Macs. MacIntels are NOT G-processor based Macs, and as such
are OT for this group. And discussion of running Windoze on them is
even further OT! Can we get back to talking about actual G-series
Macs? If you guys want to discuss these issues, start another list
and talk about them there. I'm tired of hearing about Intel and
Winblows! That's not what this list is here for.
