The virtual machine and all it's setting show up a a single big package
file on OSX. I usually keep it on my desktop as VMWare doesn't seem to
care where you stick it. So I can copy that file as many times as I want
and throw them in the trash if I don't want a particular instance, just
like an
Generally Windows viruses won't work on OSX so it's not like having a
virtual windows box is going to add much risk. As a virtual windows
machine it is just as susceptible to viruses as a real windows box. That
also means you could create a document in Windows that is infected, use
your Mac to
Do you only need to make a copy of the original Windows by clicking command + c
and store it on a free space? Then throw it in the trash and copy it back with
command + c and paste it into the virtual machine folder again? That would be
fantastic in a way, because we are sort of talking about a
One question, in unity mode, in VMWare Fusion, do you risk any virus from the
Windows side to run into the mac side? It could be configured for Windows OS
and Mac OSX? Is it maybe best to keep Windows fun in Windows in shell mode or
what i can call it?

The little I do in Windows didn't require a dedicated Bootcamp setup so
I've always used VMs. The other nice thing is the virtual windows hard
drive is just a (large) file. So I keep a master copy around and if my
running copy gets mangled somehow I just put it in the trash and clone
another on
Chris,
Thanks. Have you used both modes? Since the Mac experience is new
for me I want to do what works right the first time. I can keep using
the Windows machine and have to until I find a Windows 7 dvd anyway, but
it would be a tidy office here to have only one computer.
I hope there
You can set up a mac to 'dual boot' where you partition your hard drive
in two pieces with Windows on one and MacOS on the other. Then Apple's
BootCamp tool lets you pick which one you want to start up. When running
Windows this way it's no different than any other PC laptop and your
Apple turn
Hi everyone,
Just joined the list. Got a MacBook Pro recently, and will start
training on it next week.
First of many questions, but will not fire them off too quickly. I
am switching from Windows 7 to the Mac. One program that is not yet
supported by OS X Mountain Lion is Duxbury. I wi
