[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1377227, member: 46727"] That's true but it's mostly games that need 3D acceleration which do not work well. Why don't you tell us which graphic intensive programs you intend to run and perhaps we can tell you if they will or not. Parallels (and VMWare Fusion) will virtualize a Boot Camp partition and run it in a VM which avoids having to reboot to Windows. Keep in mind this means extra $$$ for Parallels and a copy of Windows 7. Boot Camp is free which means all you would need is a copy of Windows 7. Again, tell us which programs you intend to run in Windows and perhaps we can help you decide what to do. [/QUOTE]
