Switching with new Mac machines back to Windows.

[Anonymous]

I am sure not being alone and that someone did figure out this mess with mac not being 64 until version 14 or probably 15. I was mac user from 1987 till 1998; switched to wintel until this winter when I invested and switched back to macs (top of line mac pro, imac and book pro + software) and felt very good about it. Now maybe obvious dilemmas:

I know WHAT: plan B is now IN and I plan to abandon OS X for good; but have not clear crisp idea as HOW? (yes, I know boot camp)

Can anyone share his ideas or what they intend to do? (windows 7 or XP64; drivers compatibility or availability)

Suggestions as way to stay in Mac World are allowed.

Will the Boot Camp allow me to use PC-based ArchiCad 10 that the rest of the office uses?

Yes. You can run any Windows version of ArchiCAD under Boot Camp or under virtualization software such as Parallels Desktop. Either approach requires obtaining and installing license for some version of Microsoft Windows for your Mac.

Yes, provided that you load a copy of Windows on the machine. There are a couple of folks in our office that do just that.
