alright, so I am thinking about running windows on my Mac, but only one thing doesn't make sense. Getting Windows 7, or Vista. I can purchase it (or get itanother way) but which one do I look for.
NikeTalk'ers who have Windows OS on Mac OS, need assistance.

Just get Ultimate.
Unlike past editions of Windows, the type you choose actually matters. And while you may be a casual user, you might have to change a driver or manipulate apart of the OS..in which case, professional/premium might not let you.

I have Home Premium on my Macbook Pro and it works fine for what I use it for.
, andfor $30 (expired now) student discount, it was a good deal.
No, but one of my classes uses Windows only, so I was kind of forced to, because I'm too lazy to walk 5 minutes to the library.

no other than you lose HD space. They are separate, so no matter how badly you %$#% your windows part of the computer up or vise versa, they shouldn'teffect each other.

Go ahead and get 64-bit. If I'm not mistaken, Windows 7 64-bit is compatible with 32-bit software, so it really doesn't matter. And go ahead and upgrade your RAM before hand, just to minimize the chance of any problems.
Get Parallels. It's faster and it works with Windows better.
