Eh. You still have to reboot and rebooting is what you have to do with the Evil OS. If Apple would stop sending me updates that require me to reboot for no reason, i'd be happy (Darwin supports the ability to unload libraries, so there is no reason you should have to reboot for something like QuickTime, restart Apps yes, reboot no).

Now what would be cool (which of course means MS won't do it) is if instead of releasing VPC as an emulator for the new Intel Macs, they instead release a suite of translation libraries so that most Windows binaries could just run under OSX (ala Rosetta).
