[QUOTE="deansmith, post: 1633764, member: 341521"] Hello, I'm hoping someone may be able to help with this. I have a macbook pro 2.66ghx, 4mb ram, osx 10.9 and have the following requirements. ..I use an application that is web based and pc only so i am using windows 7 on my macbook pro in bootcamp. Also this app is internet based and requires a decent connection speed and fast processing. So far this part works fine, but i would like to do the same with additional VM players (windows 7) from within bootcamp. I have tried this but so far i have had alot of issues with speed and crashing and overheating.. i have got macfan running to help cool things but it still gets too much. So i guess my main question is whether my machine is capable of doing this task fast and reliably in bootcamp? If not would it be worth an upspec? I appreciate that a pc would be more suitable for this but i would like to to know if its possible on my macbook before i spent out on a pc? thanks for any help... [/QUOTE]
