Is there any better application and hopefully it free.
I will be happy if there any gurus that can point me a web how to do it . I keep my macbook for few month doing nothing in the drawer until
my friend tell me it can run two OSs simultaneously.
Any guide how to install WinXP/Vista on Mac?

wine or crossover is let you install a normal window application in your mac. Parallels or Vmware fusion is a virtualization software. Let you install others OS in your machine. The performance will be slow and it using your processor alot |
