i just got fusion this morning. have it running very smoothly with Vista Ultimate 64bit. you have a shared folder on the mac that you copy stuff into and then that appears as a network drive on windows.

good program!

well i have been looking for aaaaaages for some software to run the 64bit windows. so when i saw this i said i'd try it out!!

im using office 2007 & visual c++ on it.

one thing i noticed, my macbooks fan was going MAD all the while using it. i then shut it down, and restarted my mac. just using mail on os x and then thing was still nearly taking off. iStat pro said cpu temp was 75 degrees, adn the exhaust fan was 6200rpm!!!!

i went into activity monitor and saw a process called "airport" using 98% of cpu, ended this process and back to normal. and my airport was still running fine.

i think it was something to do with the airport while on windows... very strange....

hmmmm very interesting post Moe! I must think about that for a while.

Have you used Parallels or Bootcamp? Just wondering for comparison purposes?

big_moe

no i haven't, because neither of them could run the 64 bit!!

I can't really give a direct comparison but fusion is quick and seems fairly stable so thumbs up from me!!
