Hi, Im thinking about getting Vmware or Parallels using it as a virtual PC to access my Bootcamp partition. I'm just wondering if this is even possible (im new to virtual pcs). If it does work, will i be able to access bootcamp directly from booting it natively? Are there any cons using virtual Pc software?

Vmware works fine. You can access the bootcamp partition from Fusion. You can also boot natively. If you have 8GB RAM and you don't play games, you should be happy with it.
