It's decent if you want to use non-graphics intensive windows applications in OSX.

The official website offers a $20 rebate to US customers.

 

sweet..yeah i need it for ad-aware and active sync.

 

It sort of defeats the purpose of installing an OS that gets a ton of malware for the express purpose of being able to use a malware remover doesn't it?

In other words, you won't get malware in OSX, and even if you do, Ad-Aware on the Windows side won't be able to do anything about it.

Ad-Aware probably can help your malware problems in Windows, but, that sounds suspiciously like breaking your leg just so you can get painkillers

As for ActiveSync, are you sure iSync won't work?

I just feel it's expensive if all you want to do is sync with your peripherals ($60+ for Fusion, at least 5GB of HDD space used on your drive, a Windows license if you don't have one already, and then of course as you mentioned, having to deal with malware).
