XP/VMWare Fusion

January 20, 2010 · Filed Under Tech Update 

As you know I have been doing a bunch of studying on Lynda.com of the Windows XP OS. The actual tutorials are very well done. I can’t recommend Lynda.com enough, they do a fantastic job. However, the Windows XP OS compared to Snow Leopard or even Leopard is rather crude.

Just wanted to make an observation about all of this. If I use XP in VMWare Fusion all day long it seems to kind of hose up my Mac. I don’t know why or how, but when I quit Fusion the Mac runs rather slow and seems to have issues with some of the applications. Don’t ask me why this occurs, but it does. Anyone out there have an explanation for this please send us a comment.

Anyway, I am learning a lot about XP. I finished the XP stuff today and moved on to Microsoft Office 2007. Never seen so many menu bars and buttons in my whole life. The tutorials are helpful.
