Ultimately, …
Ultimately, VirtualBox will run any OS (pretty much). It is just a matter of whether or not the OS will recognize the virtualized hardware.

VBox lags and eats up your ram. Not recommended. Mac use other software that they don’t need. Macs < Windows.

Hmm VirtualBox lagged a lot with me.. There was a few second lag between when I would move the mouse, and when the actual mouse on the screen would move.
I didn’t experience this with VMware, or Parallels.
Any ideas?

No, Linux = The most stable operation system in the world, but lacks software support and user friendliness. Great for Servers. That isnt the definiton of fail. Getting a higher quality product for free than windows, or mac for that matter is a fail.

virtualbox can run vista, just make sure you have atleast 1gig of ram to give vista for itself or it would be pointless to use it

I’m buying a Macbook Pro soon. But I have a license for Vista Ultimate that was hoping to use.
Has anyone tried running Vista in this yet? If so, how well does it work?
