<HTML><BODY style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; ">Hi -<DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>I find that even if I purchase a Mac for personal use, it's subject to an educational discount from Apple because I work here - cool! So I'm looking into replacing my very old and misbehaving PC with a MacBookPro plus the available Windows interface: Parallels Desktop for Mac plus Windows Vista Business Edition. </DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>- Has anyone on this list tried this interface? Is it good? </DIV><DIV>- how/where did you purchase the software to make the Windows interface work? - is it available via MIT?</DIV><DIV>- has anyone tried the transfer of files from PC to MacBook? Is it hard? (I don't want to lose a lot of things I have on my old PC, so it seems to me if I can bring a PC interface in the transition would be simpler -- and also I need to be able to view web pages on a PC, for editing purposes)</DIV><DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>- Marion</DIV><DIV><BR></DIV><BR><DIV> <SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate;
