  • Abstract:  Running Windows 8 or Windows 7 on a Mac or a MacBook is simple with virtualisation software, so you need never have to reboot to switch operating systems again. There are three clear options: the open-source and free but limited VirtualBox, or one of the ...

  • Improved performance and ever-tighter integration with the Mac OS
  • More expensive than Fusion
  • Although it's more expensive than Fusion 5, Parallels Desktop 8 has an edge in 3D performance and in the way that it integrates Windows programs into the Mac operating system, so people who need to use Windows software on a regular basis will find that it...

  • Brings compatibility for Mountain Lion and Windows 8, Better battery performance, Faster booting up of Windows 8 through Parallels Desktop 8
  • Running in Coherence Mode is a little confusing due to lack of Start Menu, Windows 8 performance is generally slow as we noted in our observations and Cinebench and 3D Mark benchmarks
  • Currently, if you're a Parallels Desktop 6 or 7 user, you can upgrade to version 8 for Rs. 2,848 and if you're a first time buyer, then the program will cost you Rs. 3,999. Honestly, if you're not running Windows 8, then we don't really see why you would ...

  • Abstract:  Microsoft has just released Windows 8, and while the user interface is a dramatic departure from what people have been used to, one cannot help drooling at the new Modern UI. Heck, as a Mac user even I have wanted to taste the forbidden fruit. Boot camp i...

  • Nem opsætning/installation, Brugervenligt, God integration mellem Mac OS X og Windows
  • Hastigheden, da den deles mellem virtuel og “ægte” computer, Prisen
  • BootCamp virker 100% og er en “gratis” løsning, så hvorfor egentlig knap 600,- for et stykke software der reelt set gør det samme? Det er der rent faktisk flere gode grunde til. For det første kan du “stoppe og starte” Windows præcist som det passer dig...
