[vet-mm] Dual Boot Macs

[Tim Kitchen]

We now have about 90 iMacs dual booted with Vista & OSX, gives us the  
best of both worlds.

We are hoping to replace all our PCs with dual booted intel iMacs in  
the near future

No major network issues.

We tend to use Vista for all the usual word, ppt, excel & student  
account stuff and OSX for the multimedia stuff like video editing with  
Final Cut, Music production with Garage Band & Cubase (very very cool).

The "real world" out there uses both platforms so why not teach with  
both platforms.

More and more pressure on us to replace the staff PC laptops with dual  
boot MacBooks.
