Re: [OT] Mac advice...

[Ho Yin Ng <architect.hoyin@xxxxxxxxx>]

I use virtulisation a lot on my mac.

I have tried Parallels and VMware extensively.

Parallels 4 was very bad and very slow. VMware was a lot quicker.

I sadly use some 3D programs when I need to open a work file to check stuff
whilst I am on the move and VMware is the only one that can handle it
properly.

My vote goes for VMware.

Interestingly my whole office uses PCs, but I couldn't handle a PC laptop,
so I decided to get a Mac one whilst on the move. But it integrates fine,
however entourage cannot really handle exchange 2007 and large amounts of
email very well. It crashes a lot and is basically quite unresponsive.
