you've been able to do this for ages. however it has not always run as smooth as it does now.

and just with the release of leopard are people able to run mac on windows.

i don't think that's very cool at all. i mean, the whole point of buying a mac is to run the software that comes with it. why not buy a window based note book for a lot cheaper?

because you can run both, at the same time. and tab back and forth like its a window. and both operating systems have their flaws, so why not run both and get the maximum potential.

i use parallels =]
my imac doesnt support alot of the technology software i use at my school
and since my switch from pc to mac, i have never looked back.
if you can run windows apps on a mac, install any OS you like, and have the reliability, looks and glory of an iMac, then why the fuck do people buy windows anyway???

Ohhh, I get it. That is pretty cool, I didn't know you could tab beneath both of them.

People are simply more familiar with windows. They have always been. Those who are uneducated about computers, are much more likely to purchase a machine that they see being used in schools, at work, etc.

I own a PC desktop for homework, and a macbook for my personal use.
