VMWare will announce Monday the release of Fusion, its virtualization software for Mac OS X. The software will cost $79.99 and a 30-day evaluation version will be available for download.

Fusion enables Intel-based Macs to run Windows software side-by-side with Mac OS X. It competes with Parallels Desktop for Mac and Codeweavers’ CrossOver for Mac as a way for Mac users to run Windows programs without having to reboot their systems.

Fusion features 64-bit processing support; it can run Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit edition and other operating systems designed for 64-bit microprocessors. It not only enables Mac users to run Windows, but it also supports Solaris, Linux and more than 60 different x86-optimized operating systems, according to Pat Lee, VMWare’s senior product manager for Mac products.

I can’t wait to get this for my new mac, I think I’ll get some more RAM first, it should allow me to consolidate my pcs, and it brings new opportunities to the apple platform.
