With the prevalence of the Virtual environment described in a previous post, it has become possible to have multiple separate "operating systems" like Windows, Linux etc. run on a underlying system called the hypervisor.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypervisor
The Hypervisor is soon to become a necessity with more and more vendors interested in providing their version of the Hypervisor which will be the true operating system.
Think of a spyware free world soon where the operating systems and the software can be replaced at a wink. The virus attacks do not and cannot gain control of the underlying operating system since they do not have access to it. The word "virtual" suddenly got much more real.
