[QUOTE="Benjamindaines, post: 364427, member: 8386"] If you need good graphics (Games and other 3D apps) you will need to use Bootcamp. If you want to just run MS office I suggest you go buy the Mac Version, but if you have other Windows Apps that do not have a Mac version and aren't all that processor or graphics intensive, I suggest you use Parallels or VMWare. CrossOver is still very much so in development, not a lot of apps work with it, but it is good if you are a web developer and need to see how your site will preform under IE6 (currently there is no support for IE7) and things like that. --Cheers EDIT: Now after re-reading your post I suggest you use Bootcamp for what ever you need, you really don't have enough memory to run 2 OSs at the same time.
