Or I could just run the software on the OS it was designed for.

Or you could run it on the OS it was designed for but on a Mac and skip all the attendant problems.

Which would require Bootcamp, because motherboards in Macs have BIOS that isn't intended to boot Windows. I think I'll run my OS on hardware that was designed for it.

Furthermore, the last time I bought a machine Apple didn't offer a Mac with a top end NVidia video card. That was a deal breaker even without having to hack the OS to run my Windows programs.
