Ugh. One of the “perks” of having to upgrade to a new MacBook Pro is now I can run Windows on it.
\nWhee.
\nI’ve run Windows on a Mac before, in the eternally-pokey Connectix\/Microsoft “solution”, but now that I can run Windows natively<\/i> using Boot Camp or Parallels Desktop, ‘m hoping it will be somewhat less arduous. At the very least, I’m hoping it’s less arduous than installing<\/i> Parallels Desktop and WinXP has been. I’ve spent the last two hours trying to get this working, and only after I made a disk image of the Windows install disk did I get past MS-DOS.<\/i> Jesus, people. All this to just run Internet Explorer for some client work. Jesus.<\/i>
\nOh, well. Always look on the bright side, right? Bring on the Windows games!
\nWait. WhaddayaMEAN,<\/i> 3-D acceleration isn’t supported yet…!?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
