Bob, Just to correct what seems a misconception: Parallels and Fusion allow you to run both Mac OS X and Windows simultaneously on one Apple system, but you don't need to do that at all. You can install Windows and configure an Intel-based Apple system to boot directly into it ... no emulation involved at all. This is called "Boot Camp" and is a built-in facility of the latest Mac OS X supplied with all Apple systems. From the Mac OS X system help: "You can install Windows XP or Windows Vista on your Mac using Boot Camp Assistant, located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder." >From that point forwards, you're running a Windows box made by Apple, until you choose to restart it and start up Mac OS X instead. -- Godfrey www.gdgphoto.com www.flickr.com/photos/gdgphoto www.twitter.com/godfreydigiorgi -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
