Some people want to run some programs before they convert totally I think it will be helpful for them to run both. I would rather convert them into Mac totally and forget about Windows forever.
I think by the time Vista has sorted out ALL it's problems, A new O.S will be just around the corner.
Interesting nevertheless.;)

>Interesting hub, but gawd, but who would want to stick Vista on their Mac!!
Nothing prevents from having both on the same machine. The reason to have Windows are the same reason since Dos / Windows exists: the huge availability of softwares.
And when one works in Big 500 World Companies it's on Windows not on Mac.
What about using PC Mover to convert from a windows XP laptop to Macbook pro? Anyone tried this?
Eid I have never tried this.
