Hi,
Not sure if I should get vmfusion or parallels to run windows 7 on.
They both seem to be as good so I guess I am shallow enough to go for the best looking.
I will trial both with windows 7.
Can I do that with a single license copy of W7?

BTW I read very thread on ag v glossy and small text problems with hi res and worried for weeks!

As a 63 yr old with glasses for short sightedness (and a short temper) I am delighted with my 15 inch hi-res ag! :)
 
One License Will Do

Since the license is for the machine, one license will work. I use both Parallels and Boot Camp on the same machine with a single W7 license. However, you have 30 days to register so you can make your choice between Parallels or Fusion before submitting W7 registration.

BTW, I struggled with the hi-res AG issue also. I'm about your age w/ glasses but I opted for a 2.8GHz Apple Store refurb with AG. I don't regret my decision.
 
Hi,

Thanks for the info.

Glad those of us out of the first flush are coping.

cheers
