I'm about to go the VMWare Fusion route myself. I have bootcamp running
great, but want to have them both. My question: How does setting four cores
affect the Mac side? I have an iMac with an intel I5 4core processor running
at 2.5 ghz and 8gb ram. I want to find an optimum for VM and Mac. So, I'm
wondering, if I give ample resources to VMWare, will it adversly affect the
Mac side? Like, if I give two cores and 4gb ram to VMWare, does that hinder
Mac performance? I guess I don't completly understand the whole Virtual
machine thing.
Can you expound on this a little?

I want to tell you all that I finally bit the bullet and purchased Vmware
Fusion over the weekend after contemplating whether to go down the Bootcamp
root or not. I felt unsafe doing it on my own and not having sighted
assistance all the time that I decided against it and went down the Fusion
root.
I have to say I am very pleased with the product. My virtual machines, if
set to 4 processors and the recommended memory when setting up the virtual
machine run near natively to say the least.
So if you want the best of both worlds and you are in a similar situation
then I suggest you spend the 40 quid and get Fusion.
