[QUOTE="Nikunj93, post: 1271793, member: 205682"] Hey guys, I need some help. I have a new MBP 13', and I just updated to LION! :D Now, I want to install XP for some applications I use from time to time. Now, there are two options: Boot Camp and Permanent Xp Virtual PC and XP Now, I am not very okay about the idea to install xp via bootcamp, as I don't really want to clog my mac with Windows. Installing XP on a separate partition should not have any impact on my Mac experience theoretically, but does it have? I don't wanna ruin my Mac Experience :D Second option, which I think would be better as the frequency of using them XP apps, is very less so I won't have any problem with virtualization. That would be it, suggest what should I go for, and which program for virtual pc, and how to set it up. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
