Thought you might like to know that Win7 was successfully installed in Sun's virtual machine running in Leopard 10.5.6. It appears to be an improvement over Vista (of course). It's a similar Windows interface, but seems to run faster with fewer problems. Some drivers are lacking for my MacBook Pro, but it seems to work fine overall.

I wonder what kind of performance it has as compared to running it in Bootcamp when that capability arrives.
