[QUOTE="LongJnSilver, post: 982914, member: 90011"] On my MacBook Pro (2009 Unibody) I have OS X Snow Leopard and run Windows XP Pro under VMWare Fusion 3.0. My Windows programs like Lotus Word Pro and Yahoo! Web Hosting run SLOOOOOOOOOW. It's scary, really... feels clunky. BUT... I also have a 200 GB Bootcamp partition running Windows 7 Professional and it absolutely BLAZES! Wonderfully, when I have booted to Bootcamp and need a file from the Mac HDD, I can use Windows Explorer and DRAG IT RIGHT OVER to the Windows side. So, I've got the best of two, er.. THREE worlds! - LongJnSilver - London, UK [/QUOTE]
