arstechnica.com — First, the company announced its initial public offering (IPO) plans to the world. The second piece of news, which is perhaps far more interesting to Mac users, was that a mysterious, anonymous video was leaked yesterday showing Windows 3D graphics acceleration running on VMWare for OS X.

I've been reading for some time that Parallels is working on this too, so the race is not over yet!

If that thing works within reasonable performance and they carry it over to Linux... I can promise that only Microsoft product that runs in my computer will be in VM. Finally i can see that light at the end of the tunnel =) (And have a real reason for my wife that why i need to buy that dual core :p )

Did anyone else catch the fact that all that games that were demo's were all DirectX 8.1 API? None of them were DX9c. Impressive start for a virtual machine for sure, but I thought Parrallels was getting full DX9c API support within the first half of 2007?
