Call me crazy but I am someone who would be (and is) interested in this. I use Corel Draw to make figures with (NMR) data for scientific publications. I also use it for making drawings that I use in the class I teach. While there might be other options available for the Mac platform I am not willing to give up the knowledge I have gained on the Corel products and Corel does not have a Mac version of this software.
The only way I would buy a Apple computer to replace my Windows PC is if it has a option for running some Windows based software. I still think the virtual machine (VMware) option is better. However, it is not clear to me that Draw would run fast enough in this mode. So knowing I can dual boot would make me much more likely to buy an Apple for my next computer. I am sure there are more people like me how are unwilling to give up software that we currently run on our PCs. I do not think Apple can afford to overlook these potential customers. Perry.
