Indeed, the only reason that I could think of for running either VMWare,
Virtual PC on the PC, or Paralells Desktop on the Mac, is that they
would allow you to say run one of the DOS emulators in an environment
that would not normally allow you to do so e.g. VMWare under Linux, or
Paralells on a Mac.

Indeed.
Cheers.
