OSX and/or Vista
This is some scary shit, if you continue reading on, be prepared to get scared the hell out of yourself. Okay maybe I'm a bit exaggerating, but it does look weird. I went ahead and used the just released Parallels 1.0 to install Windows Vista Business (from the MSDN-AA) on my MacBook Pro. In other words a virtual machine running Windows Vista on Mac OSX Tiger. Check the screenshots after the jump.
Together with the 'Coherence' functionality of Parallels it looks like one giant merged operating system. Every running program is available in the dock, Windows sidebar is available as well as the dashboard. The best of both. One drawback, my machine does tend to get a bit slower.

This is what my normal OSX desktop and dashboard looks like. Nothing too fancy.

And this is what happens when Vista tries to mess with it. Scary uh?
