Posts Tagged ‘Virtualisation’

Ok, so you gotta admit. There comes a time when even the high-priest of the Church of Mac has to use Winblows… I’m sorry, Windows 😛 Never fear fellow worshipers of Mac. There are 2 ways in which you can run Windows on a Mac.

The first method is Boot Camp. Would require you to have OS X Leopard running. This method lets you run Windows at native speed. If you want to play graphic intense games it’s best if you have an iMac or Macbook Pro. iMac, Macbook Pro and Mac Pro support Windows Vista 64-bit version. The low end Macs even though has a 64-bit processor supports only Windows Vista 32-bit version.

The next method to run Windows on a Mac is to install a third party software that enables virtualisation. Parallels Desktop and VMWare Fusion are two great softwares available. The software is worth every penny you spend on it. I currently use Parallels Desktop 3.0 and I am very happy with it’s results as I do not have to boot Windows to run it. Just double click Parallels and viola, you are on Windows.

So give this software a try and leave a comment.
