Been having some downtime due to my old PC giving up the ghost.

I needed Mac apps for work but what about my sims...?

Answer: Apple Bootcamp

Received my MBP 17 yesterday. Here's some shots I took after installing XP Pro and loading up Silent Hunter 3. It works great!

Letting the crew get used to the idea of Think Different ;\)

Looks like I won't have to dry dock my sub after all.

Very nice!

I wonder if it will run on my Mini Duo?

Edit: I doubt it now looking at the gx that your MPB has.

I think I will need an iMac \:\(

Not sure about the Mini but I hear you will be able to DIY and upgrade the processor soon to Merom. ;\)
