Doing Windows in a Mac World
May 5, 2008The short solutions to this situation are:
- Forget it
- Run Parallels on your Mac
- Get a separate Windows only machine
I’m not a Windows hater, so #1 isn’t a good option, but I have to tell you that #2 Suuuuuuks.
After throwing a day of my life away trying to get Parallels to work on my shiny new Power Book Pro with 4gb of RAM, I gave up. Turns out those in the know said that the only way it will work is with Windows XP. Hmmm. Vista users, forget it. Save yourself the stroke and just get a dedicated Windows box.
I suggest a Mac Mini! That’s what I’m using and it’s awesome!
