I was recently discussing the topic of Intel Macs with my father (and yes, we both own and swear by our Macs).
One of his co-workers is seriously considering switching over, now that Apple has introduced the line of Intel Macs. We soon got onto the topic of Bootcamp and all of that stuff.
But I was wondering, is it even possible to run Windows and Mac programs simultaniously?
Obviously not with Windows or Mac OS X, but is it possible for some new OS to run both?
After some thought, I doubt that you could do that without the aid of Virtual PC, or one of those programs, but if you can virtually simulate a chip and run Windows on it, shouldn't you be able to run DOS on a virtual chip and Unix on a real chip, and have a sort of, super OS?
Any thoughts on this would be great, I dont know a whole lot about these kinds of things....
