BootCamp or Parallels
Hi,
I have a Macbook Pro that my parents got me. One of their reasons is that I could do my homeschool work on it. My problem is that the homeschool software, Switched-On Schoolhouse, requires Windows XP, Vista, or 7. I want to know these things:
- Which is easier to install?
- Which will work better for me? (Performance, switching from OS's, simplicity)
- What do I need for each installation? (I don't want both)
Another thing I've read about is that I needed a Mac OS X Lion Driver Disk. I don't have that because Lion came with my Mac already installed, and I don't want to spend a lot of money to get that, Windows 7 Installation Disk, and the Switched-On Schoolhouse Software ($400 dollars I think). Also, how do I backup my files in OS X Lion? I have no other external drives, just the laptop.
Please help,
