Nothing says she can't boot Windows on the iMac. In fact, it's supported from Apple. If you use Parallels, you can be running Windows apps and Mac apps at the same time. Just don't be skimpy on the memory. And of the "all-in-one" computers out there, the only one I'd trust is the iMac. -Mat -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
