I just realize that dual booting Ubuntu on my MacBook Air is huge barrier for me to use it. I'm always too lazy to wait the painful shutdown/reboot process. Then, I need to consider the alternative option, yes, Virtualization.
I have seen some of my colleagues using Windows on their cute Apple laptops via Parallels and VMWare Fusion. Definitely, all that copies are pirate and I don't want to follow their path. After finding information around, I found that there is also a good free (as free speech) one, VirtualBox.
Although VirtualBox web site states that Mac version is still beta and lacks some features as in Windows/Linux version, my test concludes that it's enough for normal usage.
