[QUOTE="EndlessMac, post: 995412, member: 140470"] To add to what has already been said, if you need the full performance of Windows for things like games then you will want to use Boot Camp. Running Parallels or Fusion is like dividing your computer in half so your Mac won't run Windows at your computer's full power nor will your Mac OS X run at your computer's full potential when using either application. The downside of Boot Camp is that you have to restart your computer every time you want to use Windows whereas with Parallels or Fusion you can use both OS at the same time. The other option is you can have both Boot Camp and Parallels or Fusion but that means it will be more expensive for you since you have Tiger. [/QUOTE]
