[QUOTE="bishopazrael, post: 248916, member: 18964"] Ok..now for the windows... Bootcamp vs Parallels. Bootcamp is for those who need 100% full power. For games like battlefield 2, FEAR, Quake, etc... It partitions your drive for you, yes. Its quite easy. I've walked soccer moms through the install over the phone. Its very easy. Parallels is for those who need access to IE for IE specific work sites (real estate agents come to mind who NEED IE to get to the MLS system). Or if you have some specific windows program that you need to run. Its worthy of note that Parallels will run almost full speed, but keep in mind that it IS emulating the BIOS for windows to boot, so its by nature, slower. They are working on changing that. Now, you can access the XP partition from the Mac side, but you cannot access the mac partition from windows without Macdrive. For your phone, theres nothing to figure out. Use Pocketmac or use Missing Sync. Both have pros and cons. Try them both as they have free demos to try. But short story is ... YES you can sync your phone fully. [/QUOTE]
