[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1233250, member: 46727"] Unless you intend to play Windows games or need the full power of 3D graphics in Windows, I would install Windows 7 x 32 bit using VM software. You have your choice of Fusion, Parallels, or the free VirtualBox from Oracle. My personal preference is Fusion. You can download a trial version of Fusion or Parallels and try them out. VirtualBox is free but it's no frills VM software. The advantage of using VM software over that of a Boot Camp installation is that you do not need to reboot the machine to run Windows and your favorite Win programs. [/QUOTE]
