So, of those two, how do you decide which one is right for you? In the past, I tried to answer that question byĬomparing virtualization programs head-to-head, to see how they did on specific tasks.
Which leaves Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion as your best alternatives. And while VirtualBox is free, setting it up is complicated-downright geeky, at times-and it lacks some bells and whistles you might want.
But you have to reboot your system to use Boot Camp, so you can’t use it at the same time as OS X it’s Mac or Windows, but not both. Of those four options, Boot Camp offers the best performance your Mac is wholly given over to running Windows.
