star wars galaxies

Hi guys

My boss is a huge star wars galaxies fan, he keeps bugging me to get it. The problem is it is available only on PeeCee windoze.

Is it possible to run this game through Virtual Pee Cee?

Cheers guys.

You don't want to do that. Virtual PC provides very very poor performance, and you're better off with sticking to PCs.

That game is over rated. Not the best MMORPG out there, you'll really have to like the Star Wars Genre to put up with the mundane grinding.

Running through Parallels is slow and not worth it, if you run it through bootcamp with a copy of vista installed it is its fast. However makesure you update windows after install by putting in the OSX Leopard CD this will update all the drivers for your isight etc. Galaxies is good but like the guy above me it can get boring after a while.
