[QUOTE="TattooedMac, post: 999656, member: 101749"] No worries mate. Well i dare say there is no Mac compatible so yes installing windows looks like the go. I dont personally use Win on my Mac and you will get different opinions on both VM and parallels. With those two once all loaded up you will have Windows on there just like having a user account set up, where you can Quick Switch between the 2. With BootCamp you have to log out of Snow Leopard then log into BC. The good thing about BC is all your CPU is there for you to use as you arnt running the Mac OS. With the other 2 when you open Windows, your system CPU is working with both OS's ... And looking at which programs you will be running [B]DataCad 10[/B] looks like it will use a lot of CPU ... Well thats a little insight, and hopefully someone else will come in and let you know about the 2 Virtual s ... Hope it helped in someway mate :) Cheers [/QUOTE]
