Sure. But VM don't work (well) with older, still powerful machines like my PowerBook G4 or my PowerMAC G5. I've tried running ubunutu in qemu but that didn't work out. And I'm still more happy with OS X over other OSs to at least prefer doing every native, if it is feasible, bearable.
sorry for ranting, but VMs don't solve everything. :) matthias
