[QUOTE="thrain, post: 1268537, member: 208478"] Hey guys! I want to buy a new Macbook Air, specifically this model: 13.3" MacBook Air dual-core Intel Core i5 1.7GHz, 4GB RAM, 128GB Flash Storage, Intel HD Graphics 3000, Mac OS X Lion (MC965LL/A) Is this strong enough to dual boot or virtual machine Windows 7 in addition to running the Mac OS? I am required to have windows 7 for the university I will be attending in the fall. I am very PC tech savy and am sure I can figure out how to dual boot / vm windows 7. I just don't know how to do it yet :) So..are the new Macbook Air specs beefy enough to handle the task? Thanks!!!! [/QUOTE]
