[QUOTE="triptolemus, post: 1241730, member: 196324"] That's a bit harsh and more than a little inaccurate. Have you ever really ran a vm other than just to "try it out"? One has to take into consideration the tasks which are to be performed. Although i obviously wouldn't want to game in a vm environment, or run anything under vm which could run native under OS X, my mini with 8gb runs Windows 7 under VM Fusion almost seamlessly. My goal is to run quicken, a few server processes, and video surveillance stuff...all of which is far better suited to a vm environment over bootcamp. VM software is certainly a viable answer for many circumstances. They wouldn't be selling VM Fusion at $70 a copy if it wasn't! [/QUOTE]
