[QUOTE="Mitsang, post: 1549080, member: 314597"] [b]Running Windows - simultaneously with OSX[/b] I have not taken the Bootcamp route. I have Windows XP running simultaneously with Mavericks, since my WIndows useage is restricted to some Bank sites. I use "VirtualBox" - by Oracle. The only negative is.... I havent yet figured out how to maximise the screen in VirtualBox. But.... it does the job of allowing me to use two OS's without shutting Mac down, beautifully. It may seem complicated to set-up.... but it isnt. I am a Finance guy, and I managed it without help. You can even Alt-Tab to swithc between windows. And BTW - my MBP has only 4GB RAM! [/QUOTE]
