in vista business... i'm sure u r turning ur aero interface off right ?

anything which doesnt work aside of the aero thingy ??

i'm planning to get parallel for vista

Better don't. Parallels is good for winxp atm. Why? Even you install vista, you won't have aero interface(it is because parallels currently don't support 3D acceleration), it is the same thing as winxp. Winxp smoother in parallels. wink.gif

Anyway, if you want aero interface. Can, no problem. Just use bootcamp. Btw, just to let you know that Parallels is an emulator. So it will have a performance hit. cool2.gif

hmm... vista on bootcamp is coming out soon ??

yea... i'm worried bout my machine which is running hot sometimes when it's stressed too much on having 2 OS running at the same time... using parallel on xp btw = )

but if i'm using any bootcamp which support vista tat might come out in the future....
my gma950 can support the graphic hungry aero?

Frankly, i'm not so sure because i don't have real mac. From what i read (insanelymac forum), you can use the currently beta bootcamp to install vista. Just got some of the driver issue which is not compatible in vista. wink.gif

I am sure if you install vista in parallels, you won't get AERO wink.gif ATM, parallels don't have 3D acceleration. If you want vista, install it via bootcamp nod.gif
