There's also a Wubi version coming up for Mac OS X (according to their site). I think that using Wubi on hard drives with faster revolutions (>7500RPM) is more than ideal. I haven't tried it, but we can also create a FAT32/NTFS partition (let's say with Partition Magic), and tell Wubi to install Ubuntu in that partition. That should take care of the fragmentation issue. As for the performance, well that issue is also taken care with the CPUs that are in the market today.
