Isn’t that called a PC emulator.
One is and the other is direct... so it depends on which you use. You can do a full and complete boot into Windows and I've read a certain number of geeks that say Windows runs better on Mactintosh hardware. You'll have to take their word for it, because I don't do it, but like I said, there are those Windows people who do say that.
Why would somebody spend $2500 bucks for a Mac only to emulate a PC?
There are computer geeks right on this board who run three different systems on their machines ... LOL ... and they love it.
I was just reading someone who say they ran Mac OS X, Windows and Ubuntu all on their Mac hardware.
The direct boot into Windows works fine and is not a problem. The running of Windows insdie of Mac OS X is great because it's seamless and you can't tell you're running another system. A Windows program just runs as if it's right inside of the Mac OS X system and you can't tell the difference. So for those who want to run just one particular piece of software at a particular time, becuase they feel they have to, but they want their Macintosh -- this works great for them.
It's like I tell people -- Macintosh is the only one that can run all the software, Windows, Mac OS X, UNIX, Linux and/or Ubuntu ... (and who knows what else...).
It's no wonder that computer geeks love Macintosh.
I really have nothing against Macs.
it is just not the type of system and service that i would want to be locked into.
It’s the 6-8 beers i’ve had since 5pm that is making me combative. :)
