[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1306131, member: 46727"] Have you considered running Windows from a VM within OS X? QuickBooks runs fine from a Windows VM. And unless you're into gaming there's really no reason to use Boot Camp. Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox are all good choices. VirtualBox is even free from Oracle and works well. You still need a legal copy of Windows but your problem with backing up is made much easier with VM software since that and all the Windows information gets backed up automatically by Time Machine. No need for separate backups or having to reboot the machine each time. [/QUOTE]
