Default It\'s a Mac and a PC!

As a follow up to this thread, I did get Parallels installed on my Intel MacBook Pro, (2.16 GHz).

When I'm running it, the laptop screen is my Mac OS and my second monitor is Windows XP. I'm not a huge volume player, so the most I've had running is Pokertracker, ( [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]having pokertracker now [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]), Poker HUD, (which I haven't quite figured out), and two tables.

If I get to playing 4 tables or above, I'll let you know how it works.

you should get a real brain

anyways to OP, get bootcamp and run windows xp natively, you partition your HD and then reboot and choose what OS you want to use each time you reboot, its increadibly nice and works very well.

but the problem is that you have to have a windows XP single disc install with sp2 already on it, no updates or media center editions.

Some of these new macs are probably as fast, or even faster than some of the regular dell model pcs you see out on the market. The new macs can be a Mac and windows box in one.
