but Apple just announced Boot Camp which will allow you to boot Windows on an Intel Mac, so that is probably the way to go for applications that don't exist on the Mac System: one computer, two systems, no emulation, faster than Dell, they say.

As long as you have one of the new Intel Mac's, that is. With Boot Camp you're still using Windows with all it's faults and security holes.
Back to the original question - is there any all Mac solutions?

I am clear on the concept that running the Windows operating system is fraught with viral perils such as the recently proliferating Rootkit malware.
There is however, a less hazardous method of running Windows applications on a Mac than running a dual boot system
Take a look at <http://www.parallels.com/>
To appreciate the difference between this product and BootCamp, please scroll down the page and look at some of the recent explanations, such as

For some longer term speculation about this, and more insight into the merits of virtualization rather than dual booting look at

Again this still requires an Intel Mac, which leaves those of us without the latest and greatest out in the cold unless we use Virtual PC (which I have but hate - it's slower than cold molasses).
It's frustrating, Intel or no Intel, that there's apparently no native MacOS solution here.
