Hi, I would add a few things to this. If you use Fusion, you can keep a backup of your VM, or VMs anywhere you like, so even if you have to reinstall OS X from scratch, you don’t have to lose your VM, or have it backed up by Time Machine. You can share files and folders between the two, and largely protect your Windows from hacks by staying Mac side until you actually need Windows. You can also take snapshots of your VM to which you can return should anything ever go wrong with it, and these really do fix a lot of problems. You can also easily manage your keyboard in Fusion so that you have pretty much a native Windows experience while in Windows if you wish. The time to think about Bootcamp is if you want to do something you know can cause problems in Fusion, or if you don’t switch between systems much or can’t afford Fusion.
