Re: Trying to get the team on CAD

When I was first looking to install Inventor on my Mac, I was advised by basically all our mentors to dual boot rather than using a virtual machine for CAD. A few of them had done it, and they said the program would run faster if just made a partition.

What I ended up doing was running Boot Camp and making a partition with windows xp on it. I know that's what you said you'd rather not do, but it really is quite simple, and I've been using CAD this way all year. I only made a 40 gb partition, so it hardly effected my computer (though I might make a bigger partition depending on how much you CAD), and if I ever want to delete the partition it's very easy to do.
