But a hypervisor is a full VM. LXC, and Windows containers provide that funky process level virtualization. I guess the point i'm trying to make, there will be no "native" docker for MacOS. You'll always (or for the foreseeable future) have to start a linux VM (mabye windows?!?) to host the processes.
