I’ve just bought a brand new macbook pro from the apple store, currently i have bootcamp installed running windows xp pro. Now, i’ve fallen in love with mac os x, and would love to use full time! But im a .net web developer / programmer so i need access to a windows enviroment! So my option is bootcamp, but bootcamp would mean i would have to reboot just to use mac os x which is disappointing and annoying! So parallel would be the answer! But is it all that its cracked up to be? Will visual studio run okay on it? Will i be able to compile nicely, and run specific .net windows app’s to develop and test? Or should i forgot about os x and use bootcamp with windows?! I cant decide, and its driving me crazy, i dont no if parallels will be worth it or be able to handle my needs! I dont use a my computer for gaming (if anyone wonders – i have a 360 for that!)
Thanks in advance!!
windows wil be more reliable,because it is the full environemt with no surprises, you could get your development working on paralles, then load it up in windows and find somethng i missing or something the inconvenience will be nothing compared to the inconvenience of distrubting a software that doesn’t actually work
