I don't know how this is going to play out in the market. What will stop Microsoft from doing the same thing? Do you think Apple or Microsoft are going to support Windows? I think it is funny that apple has not enabled Linux binaries to run native on OSX. I also don't know how bootcamp is works. From what I have read it is a boot loader. I would also be afraid of cross infection from one OS to the other. I think it will only be X amount of time before some one writes something to do this.
I prefer to install Windows in a VM using VMware or Xen ( Use what ever you like ). That way the host OS is not affected. Unless some one has figured out a way to get around that. I then use that VM as a testbed or I guess the way I treat a laptop. I don't have anything important on it that I would not be able to reproduce and or have a backup. If I happen to get some virus or have a rootkit installed. I just delete the VM and restart with a base install image or reinstall in a new VM.
