Its times like these I realize why I switched to mac.....

I've got windows installed on my new mac pro - and Parallels.. both work fine with the exception of internet connectivity... there is none when I boot to windows... there IS internet when I use Parallels...

Anyone have a clue how to connect to the internet with XP?

Why does microsoft make it so dam difficult to do a simple thing as connect to the dam internet!?!?

oh, and its real choppy in bootcamp'd windows.. like if I have the control panel window open and move it - it skips like its lag'n real bad... anyone?

Do I need to dl drivers or something?

any help would be appreciated! Thanks

ok I think I've figured it out... I didn't install the 'mac' drivers on windows.... I hope this fixes the laggyness too.
