- 15" MacBook Pro, 4GB RAM (1033), i7 core, 520mb graphic card
Hi,
I've recently purchased a MacBook Pro 15in, 4 GB RAM.
I plan to do 2D graphic design (Photoshop, Illustrator), using OSX, and 3D design (3ds max) with Windows 7.
Now, my question is: Should I consider using bootcamp or Parallel?
My concern is that with parallel Desktop, my 4GB of RAM would be split between the 2 OS, decreasing my softwares' performances a lot.
I am still pretty new to the Mac environment, so I would appreciate a lot if someone could shed light on this.
Thanks!
