Hi everyone,
I have the last gen Apple MacBook Air 13", the Ivy Bridge one with 4GB of ram. I have Parallels Desktop 8. I need it just to run Outlook 2013 in Coherance mode as well as mapping a Sharepoint drive to Explorer to be shared with my Mac. I have a licence for Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 8. Since I'm just using this for one application, is there any OS/config that would use the least resources and keep the mac running fast? I doubt XP is a good option, but is 8 better than 7 etc, and what amount of ram would you recommend dedicating to this task? Thanks!
