Don't know what to think about this... I left the windows world because I couldn't deal with the many buggy software and viruses anymore.
I'm happy with parallels, even if I already had to resinstall windows after... an other virus!

Well- currently I don't really need any Windows support on my MacBook. It would be nice if I could have native support for 2 or 3 business applications though as I think it would be an absolute overkill to install a complete Windows for these 2 or 3 apps.

Well, I guess you could just use Crossover if you want to run only one or two Windows apps in OS X. (As you probably already know...) It is a version of WINE but with a OS X front end, using bottles to simulate a Windows file-structure and environment. There are many supported apps - and some unsupported can be found to work too. Worth a try if you do not want to install a full Windows environment.

I certainly do not want native support and all the problems that will bring. I like "containment" ! :-)
