MacBook Pro 15" mid 2009 enough for Windows 8 Virtual Machine?

[mcrum23]

This what I got:
Macbook pro mid 2009 15' Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66GHZ 8Go RAM Mac OS X Mavericks

Is this sufficient to run a Windows 8 Virtual Machine?

thanks

Sure, I've run windows on my 2009 MBP in vmware and it was fine.

With 8GB of RAM you'll be fine. The C2D might be your limiting factor though if you do anything heavy in Windows over VMware.
