Now we're getting somewhere. The problem is, YOU are using the same 1970's technology for this stuff. You see, the "green screen" doesn't work on a Mac.

The green screen works on all of my Macs using VMWare and Windows XP. It's a bit cumbersome but workable ...

Q: What can PC users do that Mac users can't?

A: Shut the f%^$ up about their computers!

Thread creep...

Please, I just dropped a bunch of money on an iMac in October, and am getting ready to sell it on eBay. Going back to the PC. I tried it... Tried to like it, and ended up hating it...

Anyhow, back to your regularly scheduled search for the trip trade bulletin board...

P.S. I do like the mobile devices (iPhone/iPad), although they're not perfect, they are pretty damn nice.

Did you put VMware or Parallels on it? You can migrate over your old pc and never use the Mac side instead of selling it.

Sure is nice to have time machine. When it comes to upgrading the hardware again it's easy.

Parallels is very easy to use. close in performance to VMware but some prefer one over the other.

With Bootcamp you have to turn off the computer to boot to windows. Then turn off again to boot to Mac. Haven't used it. Heard it runs fastest but requires a separate partition on the HD. Don't know anyone that uses it.

8 gb of RAM is the min I would use with parallels or VMware for a good experience. 16 gb is fairly cheap to buy and install.
