Cesar R Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 for some reason I feel weird doing that as if the mac was not meant to run windows.... But then again all the programs I use run in windows only and things are a little slow under parallels especially 3dsmax and other graphic card demanding applications. Is anyone else using their mac strictly for windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I dont use it strictly for windows. However, my Mac Pro dual boots with boot camp into Vista Pro 64 and OSX 10.6. I also have virtual box loaded onto OSX which virtualizes Win XP so I can study for my NCARBs. They refuse to release any version other than 32 bit windows.

Cesar R Posted July 5, 2010 Author Share Posted July 5, 2010 ^ I was thinking on taking my 1TB drive on the imac and splitting it in half for windows and osx... or maybe make it more of a windows drive. and buying a mac mini to use as a mac for e-mail and admin stuff.. I am starting to think I made a mistake and should have bought another pc when I got rid of my older Precision workstation and just get a macmini. For now what I think I am going to do is put windows on the imac (btw its a 27" quad core) get more ram for it and get a mac mini as a slave.

Cesar R Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 well installed windows 7. So far so good. I miss the virtual desktops in OSX.... but other than that I am ok. Runs good so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
