[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 636094, member: 24160"] I do not personally recall anyone having success installing to and booting Windows from an external drive on their Mac. And have no clue if it will work. What is the concern? Even if you pick up a hundred viruses in the Win partition on your Mac, they still don't affect the OS X partition. They all require Windows to run. When you're booted in OS X, they will not work. [/QUOTE]
