Have you ever used VMWare Fusion?

Unity mode is great. I can run Windows programs without even having to know they are Windows programs. They look and act like Mac programs. Or I can run full screen Windows and not know I am on a Mac. Or I can run Windows in a window. My choice. Oh, and I can bounce back and forth between those modes. I have never had a hardware compatibility issue using any Windows or Mac compatible hardware. I have the best of both worlds.

There is one HUGE thing that Windows PCs can’t do...run Mac programs in any way, shape or form.

Who would want to? With millions of Windows applications, there isn't anything that Macs have that isn't already available for Windows. Besides, do Macs have millions of applications available?

And, no, going a roundabout way to run Windows applications on Macs, isn't exactly the same as running them in Windows, no matter how much you want to pretend that it's the same.
