"If you want to run Windows applications on your Intel powered Mac, you will be happy to learn that there are three different ways. The first method is by using Crossover for Mac, the second is using Parallels, and the third method is using Boot Camp. Each has their own advantages and disadvantages. This article will explain the differences between these programs and from there you should be able to figure out which method works best for you."

For some of us, it would be nice to be able to test web pages we write in Mac web browsers (esp Safari), but I ain't doing that if I have to buy another computer, especially when the one I have works flawlessly already.

This should help your testing.

Well, you pay the Microsoft tax for running PC's. Here in the UK we pay TV license and if I dont watch BBC I still have to pay it, is that not the same as Windows on a PC I dont want?
No, it is not quite the same, at least not in the US. While it really sucks that OEMs will not sell you a PC unless you take Windows with it, it's not all that hard to get a PC without Windows preinstalled if you really want one. I'm not seeing it's possible at all to purchase a copy of OSX to run on hardware other than that which is sold by Apple. So the only way you can LEGALLY run OSX (AFAIK) is to buy your hardware directly from Apple.
