Absolutely it can. No doubt about it. Along with everything else though, it's a tad more fiddly - actually LOT more fiddly to set up, that's all.

By the way, funny you hail VmWare fusion as a great solution (and it is!) but fail to mention that, again, due to artificial Apple restrictions, the reverse (i.e. running MacOSX applications alongside Windows or Linux) is not allowed.
Sorry - didn't know I had to! Could you imagine the effort required to support this? I certainly wouldn't want to have to answer little Bobby's "but it's not working on my 486!" questions either! LOL Maybe one day now that Steve has gone, don't know. I've always thought it'd be neat to run OSX on a suitable x86 platform - high-end of course.
