[QUOTE="ksabee, post: 1578614, member: 256274"] It asked me to choose a partition to install Windows on, and showed a "Windows cannot be installed on this partition" message for all the partitions. So there was nothing I could do beyond that point I mostly use it for games (which have recommended hardware requirements that aren't really met by my Mac) and occasionally Windows-only software (AutoCAD Civil 3D being the most power sapping application of the ones I've used). I'm guessing that rules out VirtualBox? But what exactly can I do with VirtualBox? How does it work? [/QUOTE]
