[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 280155, member: 21101"] I can strongly recommend Parallels. I installed the demo and quickly bought a license. I run XP SP2 with all the latest patches and fixes, including Messenger 8, Money 2007 and IE7. I only really use it for Money 2007, but it was worth it. Also, although games are not officially supported, many do work (mainly OpenGL ones) which was an unexpected bonus. Most people will croon about Bootcamp, but Parallels offers almost full speed performance, plus drag and drop file sharing and you can alt-tab/Apple-Tab between the OS's in a blink. Just make sure you have AT LEAST 1 gig of RAM - more would be better and yes you need a full license of WinXP. It can also run Linux and other Windows OS's within the VM. :spook: [/QUOTE]
