I'll bet you a couple of $$$ that you won't hear any greater howls of anguish from the other forumites about that pic

You might, but only because its a tad small.

True. It's a little hard to work with 145x145 though. I'll embed the original later today when I get home from work

As promised.

Wow.

We are a bit short staffed, so it is going to be rough this year.

I do not really remember the last time they were a real Super Bowl threat.

Hey! Those are my two favorite teams! They aren't hopeless, are they? Well, maybe that's just wishful thinking.

You never know in the NFL.

Virtualization is nice (I use it a lot) but for dedicated gaming when performance is needed the only solution is dual boot (official Apple "Boot Camp") with both Mac OS and MS Windows. Then you have to have the separate partition...

Leo "Apollo11"

How big of a pain in the butt is that, Leo?

And are you guys sure that the Apple partition is not affected?

That's hooey Leo. WitpAE works absolutely fine under virtualization. The only games that fit your scenario are heavily graphical shoot-em-up types, not strategic, turn-by-turn ones. And who with any intelligence gives a flying f*** about those?

Er, no... A): She left her job last summer, and 2): If she HAD been there, would I waste my time posting here?

Brother "Mynok" I was talking about really graphically intensive games... those can't work in virtual environment... Total War that brother "Onime" is talking about is one great example of that... sorry...

Thus - the only way is installation of "Boot Camp", having separate NTFS partition for Windows and all such games installed there as well!

There is no big problem - you can partition the hard drive (if you have space) any way you want and the Apple Mac partition(s) would be perfectly preserved...
