[NSRCA-discussion] Lets fly--- Now!

[Atwood, Mark]

Ahhh, but you're missing the point.  I run both XP and Windows 7 virtuals continuously on my Mac and always have.  (Most of my work related stuff is in windows).  BUT...I reboot my Mac about, oh, once a year, just because.  The virtuals need to be rebooted much more often of course...Lol

I would hate to have to reboot back and forth in and out of Mac OS just to run a Sim.  I may...but would prefer to have something that runs native to the Mac.

It's funny but I have the same reaction to running Windows apps on my iMac.  In reality, if you boot up in Windows the iMac works as good or better and is no more of a pain than any other machine running Windows.  XP that is, I haven't tried Vista or 7.
