There are plenty of nice free and commercial VST plugins available only for Win. As probably most of you already know, they might be used in your OS X DAW with Wine (wacvst, VFX).

Or with a virtual machine (VirtualBox, Fusion). Or a networked Win old machine.. Ornamen, a independent developer tried and thoroughly tested every single one of these options only to end in disappointment. However, initially this post was all about painstakingly setting up wacvst.
