It doesnt matter if you run it on a Mac or Windows. So no, other virtualization environments aint able to do it. The best Parallels can do is to dedicate an entire GFX card to the VM if you got 2. The host will ofcourse be unable to use it. In your friends case a Geforce 9400M and 9600M GT.

Needing 2 GFX cards. One for the host, one for the guest kinda kills the idea of virtualization.
well if u get a phenom2 then u have an IGP for the host
