Windows virtualization on the Mac - here now?

windows virtualizationApparently everyone and his cousin must be trying to get at this right now (ah yes, there it is on digg), but some company called Parallels is beta testing some virtualization software for the Intel Macs that'll run Winders right inside OS X. No word as to how well it works yet, but apparently we are just a few days/weeks/months (tops) from a real alternative to that lame dual-boot solution. Play Fear while I compose in GarageBand? I believe the only term for that is: w00t! Anyway, the beta is free, but I'm guessing they're going to charge for this eventually. Get it while its hot! I'm sure someone at Parallels.com is really scrambling for more servers and bandwidth right now...

UPDATE: It's a 45-day trial, not a free beta test, I as previously said. Doh!
