Virtualization doesn't let me manage all my windows servers as if they were Linux servers. I boot up a virtual Ubuntu now and then as well, but cygwin makes Windows unixy in a way virtualization doesn't.

I just needed to run some applications and games, code a bit on visual studio to complete college assignments and run internet through a data-card whose modem(china-made) never got recognized on both fedora/OSX. However for managing servers, I never tried it so I agree with you. Your statement is a special case IMHO. Like me, most of the linux/OSX based user go for virtualisation if they need windows.
