Rob Pegoraro of the Washington Post is one of my favorite journalists. He covers personal technology for the Post and usually has good insights on Apple products. His latest column raving about the MacBook contained something that surprised me: the folks that make Parallels is in Herndon, VA. (You know, Parallels, that thing that lets you run Windows or Linux or FreeBSD on your Intel Mac.)

That’s only about 25 minutes away. How very cool! I will have to track someone from Parallels down and chat them up. Maybe I should start with the guy who runs the Parallels Virtualization Blog.
