Hey all,

I'm in the process of gathering parts for my new desktop and had a question. Is it possible for me to run both Windows XP and Mac OSX on the desktop?

Before you all go telling me OSX sucks, I do have a particular reason for wanting to do this. I have brand new versions of Adobe Creative Suite CS2 for my Macbook and would like to be able to run them on the desktop as well.

Is there anything specific I need to do? Or do I just need a Dual Core processor? AMD ok? Intel better?

Any information would be awesome. Thanks!
 
you can run both on the desktop with a mac. you can't run both on a pc unless you are in a virtual machine.
 
Sorry, over my head... could someone explain, what's a virtual machine and what is SSE3 and what do you mean by X86?

A Virtual machine is software that allows you to install and run other Operating systems without actualy having to install them to your hard drive or make any changes:)
So you can Test an Os while running windows:)
