If there were a way for Mac OS X inside VMware to talk to the  
Palladium (or whatever) DRM chip is soldered to the motherboard of a  
mactel, I don't think it would be too hard. Of course, eventually  
that DRM chip will get cracked, too

I'm predicting (or at least hoping) that there will be a product like  
Wine (or WineX ('scuse me, "Cedega"), or Crossover Office) that won't  
require booting Windows to run windows apps on a mactel. And, of  
course, it should be theoretically possible to run Linux apps  
natively on the Mactel boxes, provided all the necessary dependencies  
are installed, as Mac OS X already sports linux binary compatibility  
(which, of course, it has from FreeBSD).
