Hi Cam, I don't actualy use bootcamp, but do use fusion.
I can only suggest that 2 gig of memory may not be enough for windows 7 with lots of stuff open. I personally run winXP under fusion on my MBP. I allocate 2 gigs of memory to it and don't see any issues with jaws stuttering. This could of course be because I have a quad core processor rather than the memory, then again it could be that winXP requires less memory than windows7 which I believe is the case. So my suggestions are: Bootcamp would provide the full 4 gig of memory to windows and probably prevent stuttering at the price of only being able to access either windows or mac at one time. Switching to XP may give you some benefit although it is hard to quantify. Sorry I can't be of more assistance.
