The solution: Parallels Desktop for Mac

I have it running on my MacBook Pro and I never need a Windows machine again.
Here is a quote from that page:
"Run any OS at the Same Time as Mac OS X. Use any full version of Windows (3.1,
3.11, 95, 98, Me, 2000, NT, XP, 2003), any Linux distribution, FreeBSD,
Solaris, OS/2, eComStation, or MS-DOS in secure virtual machines running
alongside not instead of - Mac OS X."
Cheers,
Jonathan
