And yet they all seem to know how to run Windows in VM on their Macs.

What "all"? It's my experience that I have seen VMWare, Parallels, or BootCamp being used on fewer than 3% of the Macs I see. Windows is installed on probably fewer than 7% if that. If you read the Mac columns, you find that people installed them with the intent of needing them and then find more and more that it isn't necessary. Most switchers are glad to get rid of Windows... and don't want to go back.

I think most people running Parallels or VMWAre or BootCamp are gamers or like me, someone with a weird application that is not supported in OS X.
