Mac OSX 10.7 to include full disk encryption

Apple's recent developer preview announcement for 10.7 notes that it will include:

"the all new FileVault, that provides high performance full disk encryption for local and external drives, and the ability to wipe data from your Mac instantaneously"

This means that both Windows (BitLocker) and MacOS (FileVault) will have free, OS integrated full disk encryption.
