In the "Gilding the Lily" department: Painting the Apple

[dianeduane]

I've been thinking about the possibility of an Apple laptop for a while. Now, with the whole BootCamp thing going on, the possibility is more like a probability. And now this:

It seems like the rumors of multi-colored MacBook Pros were true, though Apple wasn't the one who dipped them in paint. ColorWare, purveyors of colorized high-end electronics, has added the 15-inch MacBook Pro (sorry, no 17-inch - yet) to their array of products you can purchase new and colorized. They also offer their colorizing service for those who need to add some colorful zing to that old 'n busted product you bought mere weeks ago.

A nice blue one...hmm.  There's a thought. But there's one other change I'd want made that I doubt these folks are equipped to handle:  I want the Apple without the Bite.

Now, with the whole BootCamp thing going on,

Don't forget that you could also run Windows in a window, with this product.

Parallel is slooowwww, and well, not for the faint of heart.

Really? The places where I've seen it discussed claimed that it ran at 95% of the speed of Windows under Boot Camp.

It depends on what you're doing, as with everything else.
True 'nuff. That's really disappointing about the scrolling problems. Maybe it will be fixed in v. 1.0.

I've used Bootcamp, VirtualPC, and Parallel.
Are you sure you aren't comparing Apples and oranges? VirtualPC doesn't have an Intel-native version out yet on the Mac.
