We now have Windows XP running on the Intel-based Macintosh — as a guest
operating system under the Linux version of [  http://www.vmware.com/
]VMware. This is quite exciting and promising, especially since the
performance of Windows XP seems  quite amazing (based on our limited test
run so far) — mind you, the kernel and the environment we are using are
experimental  and unoptimized, so it would not be unreasonable to expect
even better performance
