What?!?  Kill VPC?  A few weeks ago they announced they would give it away for free and now they are ceasing production...does not make sense, does it?

Well, if I add a "for Mac" at the end of the my Blog title it probably makes a lot more sense, doesn't it?  ;) Today the Mac community learned the pleasant surprise that VMWare is going to be releasing a Virtualization solution for Intel Macs.  On the same day, we also find out that Virtual PC for the Mac is going bye-bye :(

While this means that many PPC Macs will be left out in the cold without a way to emulate Windows, I understand where Microsoft is coming from.  Catching up where Parallels is right now in terms of VT support on the Mac would really take a while, and they would basically be starting from square one.  I can't wait to see what VMWare has up their sleeve...beating Parallels in the Virtualization market on Intel Macs is certainly a tough challenge.
