There could be an integration of a really good VM host to run multiple VMs with multiple types of Operating Systems that are fully integrated with the Windows Operating System. Integration could include running Windows applications under a Linux instance, without having to install them on the Linux machine with a ported copy - and also to run the Windows OS under a Linux shell that helps to secure the machine from viruses and other security threats, by isolating the VM from security problems, as the Linux shell would go through all network traffic and mounted storage and have both instance-based and class-based firewall technologies.
