Hello. OK, let me just say again, before anybody gets the wrong
impression. I'm not criticising, or flaming anybody here. I asked
my question out of genuine curiosity. Some of the points you raise
below are very good ones, and I confess that I missed them during my
reasoning as to why For instance:.

I accept that as valid comment. I do myself have a dual core PC
running Windows. The difference between it and what I built it to
replace is very obvious.

easily to the Mac. Opens the Mac platform up to a broader range of
folks - particularly those who would need to straddle the platforms
for some time to make a transition.
Clearly I'm not thinking along the same lines as others here then.
If one is running Windows, is it not simpler to make the switch by
having two machines ... one running each platform? I confess, I
found it easy that way. But it's true, we're all different.
2. Allows those who need frequent access to both Windows and Mac OS
for personal or professional reasons to have access to both OS's on
a single machine.
I still don't see the validity of that one. Least ways it wouldn't
suit me ... to each their own though.
3. Allows developers to develop and test in more than one
environment without investing in (or having to carry with them)
more than one machine.
This is the most valid reason of all. This one I can absolutely
understand.
