[QUOTE="StMFA, post: 1271795, member: 203876"] I have a bootcamped windows partition on my mac and it doesn't affect the mac side at all, so that'd be a good way to go. That said, I think bootcamp is the best way to go since you probably only have 4gb of RAM. When you virtualize, you need a lot of RAM to ensure you don't lose performance. If you don't anticipate using it all that often, then I'd say bootcamp is your best bet as it keeps Mac and Windows separate. Also, even if you bootcamp, you can always install parallels which allows you to boot the windows side virtually anyway, so it's a good solution all around. [/QUOTE]
