hello jimmyCMPIT
thanks for your reply.
you are right I should consider the articles which are old but from my point of view I think history repeats itself and people having errors may come across this article and my blog may help them.
Thank you
Don't know if there are any "free" ones.

Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.
If you mean that you want to run Windows applications without Windows, search for "Crossover Mac" and "Wineskin." Both are based on the open-source WINE project, and both are quite limited in scope. Most Windows applications won't work.
No third-party software is recommended by Apple.
What im trying to do is open Logos Bible software and EBible commentaries and the like. Most of which is really just read-only.
