it doesnt emulate them lol, it actually either runs Windows on the mac or inside of os x tongue

but nevertheless i would go with this choice, not wine

Bootcamp is the most stable way of running Windows apps using Mac hardware. Parallels does the job, but I don't recommend it to anyone who is impatient. I haven't used it since it's early 3.0 release, but @ that point in time, I found it rather sluggish.

Why not just dual boot your mac to run xp or vista, linux, ect on it too?

^^well yea.. that's where the bootcamp / parallels would come in, no? at least that's what i do...

mac has best of both worlds as far as application compatability layers go. theres another thing for mac that lets u run linux aps. all terminal based though so u have to learn to navigate but GTK apps are supported some Qt and no KDE happy

crossover

(and it doesn't realy emulate the appz, it runs it on a virtual wind98.. without windows)

I bought it and use it for steam (counter-strike, TF2, portal etc)
also its handy for small apps like cd-keyz that are only windows but work with mac appz.
its all bit unstabel like most people know but I can play all these games without any troublz

also.. I tried to install bootcamp once and made a partition on my macHD, it failed... now I lost 11 G, where is it ? dno.. somewhere floating above my mac lolol
