Has anyone recently made the switch?

Be careful..I just got a macbook pro, I have a 2 year old Imac at the shop..The new macs do not have rosetta, which is something that allows you to use the earlier versions of software, like CS , So I have to find all new versions...Thats with the Lion,.

He is using Corel, and for that he needs Parallel desktop to run it on Windows side.
Shirtz, you will suffer a bit when you switch to get all the stuff. But it is worth it.
I have my iMac for 7 years, and I had to reboot it only once in those 7 years, and that was my fault too.

He can use Bootcamp that comes with the Mac OS to run Windows, but I don't know if you can run both systems concurrently under it. I use VMware Fusion to run Windows and you can run both OSs simultaneously, dragging files from one desktop to the other.

Tom. There is a bunch of different software, I just remembered Parallels first. VMware Fusion is the best I think (I have it at work)
Sbrem:
I have Fusion running on my Mac too, but I almost never use it. You could run both systems independently, and have the Windows machine drive the VersaCamm and the Brother. If you do go Mac, consider learning Illustrator for your vectors, of course you could continue to run Corel on the Windows machine, but then, why convert to Mac at that point? And, you could do it in baby steps, so you'd have that safety net.
