[QUOTE="Kash, post: 356268, member: 23444"] Yes, Boot Camp is essentially the same as dual-booting. All Boot Camp does is partition the hard drive and function as a boot loader (a pretty one at that ;)) There might be another option available for you. I'm not exactly sure as to how many resources Visual Studio takes, but as long as heavy 3D support isn't necessary, then you could look into something called Parallels. It lets you run Windows side by side with OS X. This way you can still enjoy all that OS X offers and save time from rebooting often. [/QUOTE]
