Well, you can run Windows in a VM, but you can also install it to run natively using BootCamp. So, it might be slower in a VM, but since you can also run windows on a MBP natively I'd say that's what I would try for any speed test. Still, I think the flaw I see in this entire argument is that you are comparing Windows (an OS) with a MBP (hardware). You can compare Windows on a PC (Dell/HP/Whatevs) vs Windows on a MBP I guess. Windows will run on them all. So when you say video runs faster on Windows are you saying it runs faster on Windows on a Dell? Windows on a HP? Windows on a MBP? It will run on them all... Natively. -Cameron ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:324207 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
