I'm not John but my belief is that Mac users who buy VPC buy it because they have to use a PC product. If VPC wasn't around, they'd still have to buy something to run their PC application. That would be a PC running Windows. Thus, no lost sale. And in fact, that purchase of a PC might actually make that one more user who switches and just gives up the Mac.
