Like Tim says, Fusion is only really good at testing things.... :)


Good point. I seem to recall that Nvidia supports that mac version of the Quadro fx4800 in a native windows mode as well, and parallels is supposed to be supporting that mode, but at best prices, that is a $1400 graphics card. Probably out of reach for most folks, what with having to purchase a mac pro and all.
