QUOTE(RealTech @ Jun 30 2012, 05:21 PM) Thank you for ur reply,and sorry for another question. If you are installing a 32bit Window 7 in the BootCamp, 4GB is enough since 32bit can only supported up to 3.5 GB ram while a 64 bit a Window 7 can support more above 4GB. Technically, 64 bit environment are much better in terms of speed and more ram are better for multitasking, applications speed and UI performance.read some other forum,this make me a bit confuse. some of them said if use bootcamp,better get 8GB ram ,and some say 4GB already enough ... |

I encountered this problem while downloading using my friend Macbook Pro, I found out that whenever the MacOSX falls into sleep mode the dowloading will stalled and not able to continue. Not sure this apply to the same problem you encountering but try off the sleep mode to "never" and retry downloading again. |

I'm currently using the 2011 line iMac (specs below)
Recently I've installed a Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit on my iMac via Boot Camp. Everything runs fine after boot camp driver installation, except the Blue Screen Crash. It happens almost all the time on Windows 7, and the error that I recall appeared on the Bsod is 'PAGE_FAULT_NON_PAGE_' something like that. I was wondering if anyone have a solution for this matter. |

Hi All,
I am asking this on behalf of my sister who just got a new MacBook Air 13 with i7 and 8gb RAM. She need Windows because some of her business software run on Windows. Besides that, she prefer Office 2010 over Pages, Numbers and Keynote. Questions: 1. VMWare Fusion vs Parallel Desktop - which is more convenient? 2. BootCamp or not? - I understand that we can just install Fusion and then install Windows 7 into it. 3. Windows 7 64-bit, Microsoft Office 2010 and some software - how much space we need for the NTFS partition? 4. Office 2011 on Mac and Office 2010, exactly the same? Anyone used before? If same, I'd recommend her to use the Mac version instead of the Windows version. |

Office 2011 on Mac and Office 2010, exactly the same? Anyone used before? If same, I'd recommend her to use the Mac version instead of the Windows version. Not same UI. I love Windows version more than Mac version. |

QUOTE(Jing-leBelle @ Jul 19 2012, 05:35 PM) I mean for full performance to be exact. OK, I get you now. My office colleague also tell me to use Bootcamp, I didn't want to at first but sometimes we need a full Windows environment rather than a VM. If parallel/VMware the RAM is sharing half to Windows & Mac. |
