It does run Parallels and has a Win7 VM so I can run Visio and PowerPoint 2010 (generating a PDF from PP 2010 from Win7 is MUCH better than the PDF I get from PP 2011 on the Mac). Since this is my main computer on the road, I don't want to be also using it to run 7 or 8 VMs that I need for my labs. This is also the computer I use when I give my presentations and will need another to give demos of what I talk about. Hope I will find out about a really nice project tomorrow which will require me to have the two for what I will be doing. Yeah, I know, NDAs suck at times. :) Carl Webster Consultant and Citrix Technology Professional http://www.CarlWebster.com<http://www.carlwebster.com/> From: Don Kuhlman <drkuhl...@yahoo.com<mailto:drkuhl...@yahoo.com>> Subject: Re: Ultrabook Is the MBPro too heavy for what you want to do Carl?
