Just curious, do you need Windows? If so, why?

Chemistry apps like ACD Chemsketch.
DNA sequence scanner apps.

Tiny XP + vmware fusion 🙂
It's light and fast.

Visual Studio, PC games.

Apps I need Windows for:
MS Pinball Arcade
Future Pinball

That's about it 🙄 It's BootCamped Windows 7 RC.

Aside from work (office 2007, visio, other apps), I need it for MS Money.

Because Quicken for Mac sucks. I hope that Intuit releases a decent version before Money is discontinued.

MeGUI <- They need this for the mac. (nothing works quite so well)

Tournament Director looks awesome.

This thread is awesome. Thanks everyone! 🙂 I'm finding stuff I never heard of.

I'm actually a computer professional, and if I didn't have computers running Windows at my job, I would most likely use Windows for SQL Navigator for Oracle. But since I can remote into one of these PC's I haven't even installed it yet on my bootcamp Windows 7.

excel. Office on a mac is a pain in the ass. Plus I don't think you can do regressions on office 2008

Yeah, Office on the Mac is trash. I was happy to see Pages has everything I need.
