It could be even easier if WINE actually worked as advertised (no need to even boot Windoze) ... but unfortunately it doesn't, and due to the complexity of modern OSes it probably can't.

I have and have had ABSOLUTELY no problems with either OS X or Windows, on the same machine and neither have any of those I know of who also uses ANY Windows + ANY usable OS X on MacPros 1.1 through 5.1 when using Parallels Desktop!
