I posted this a week or so back. I don't think it went through. Trying again.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Is anyone out there? I haven't seen a post on this group for... a very long time.
This question is for Peter, or anyone else using a Mac with VMware or Parallels. The only reason I'm considering this is because I have a program on a PC that I need to use (Dreamweaver) and I don't want to fork over the unreasonable cost for it. In fact, I wish I could find the CS3 version for Mac, but not for $400.00. Like PhotoShop, there is no other program like this, for Mac or PC.
* First, which one is better? I am inclined to go with VMware right now.* I watched the videos from VMware. They show installing Win XP from an image file. I'd rather install from my own disk. Possible? * I haven't seen anything about installing software in the Win VM. Same as any Win installation?
* Is it a memory hog?* How to deal with drivers for the OS in the VM? Video card, network card, MB, et al?
* Is it easy to uninstall (like most Mac apps)? * Any other issues about using a VM? My setup: Mac Pro Intel Xeon 2 x 2.66 Duel-Core processor 5 GB DDR Pioneer DVD - ATA NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT Two WD HDs - SATA OS Leopard 10.5.x Thanks for the consideration. -- Hal --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Computer Talk Shop http://www.computertalkshop.com Un-subscribe/Vacation, http://www.computertalkshop.com/list_options.htm List HowTo: http://www.computertalkshop.com/faq.htm To join Computer Talk Shop's off topic list, please goto: http://computertalkshop.com/other_cts_lists.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
