Hey Everyone,
Not sure how to explain, But I have a business, and have work software which will only run on windows. Last year, I bought a macBook Pro, 8GB Mem, 13.3" screen, 750 Gb Hard drive, and really love it. I used my desk top for my business software. More about the business software, is taking pictures from like iPhoto, incorporating them into the windows software, Then spending 3-4 hours dissecting the picture into different colors, dissecting the patterns, and turning them into squares of color designs. It's tedious at very least, but I'd much rather do the work on my laptop. These programs are several hundred dollars a piece, and only run on windows. So what I want to do, is somehow, find the best application, Bootcamp, or whatever is the best, set aside a piece of my hard drive for doing this work. The last Windows software I used that I actually liked was XP pro, So if I can incorporate this Windows set, on my MacBook, then install the windows software on my mac, and I'll need to get to the photos somehow, to dissect them, then send them to my printer afterwards to print. Is this a doable thing? How would you do it as you have much more experience than I do, Then How do I keep viruses off of my mac? is it even worth the virus problems to do, I like my Mac because I don't have to worry about the never-ending battle of fighting Viruses, Phishing, slow down problems, and I'll be downloading a good bit from Photo Bucket, and sights like that. Whats your take on keeping these problems under control?
