Here's a very interesting little article!

http://www.macnn.com/news/19031

Seems now that Micro$oft have bought Virtual PC, RWB have committed to 
resuming development of RealPC, with a promise to one correspondent 
that he will see something "in the next 30 days". Apparently, it turns 
out that when RWB bought RealPC and SoftWindows from Insignia, they 
actually signed an agreement with Connectix NOT to develop RealPC (or 
SoftWindows) in competition with VPC (too much for my tiny brain, I'm 
afraid...). Since that agreement was with Connectix, and not M$, FWB 
now feel free to resume development. Seems to me that if they can 
promise results within the next 30 days, development might have been 
continuing privately anyway.

The 17 responses to the article make interesting reading as well.
