The thought of buying a PC for Vue has crossed my mind as I've tried running it under Parallels loaded with XP with pretty disastrous results. I'm not a PC guy by any stretch, but Windows seemed to not like accessing a Mac video card which wasn't a big surprise, nor something I expected great results from. I do run GeoControl, UVMapper Pro and a handful of other PC apps under Parallels, but I bought those knowing their wasn't a Mac version and after successfully running a demo on my Mac/PC hybrid setup.

My dig there is that e-on sold me a Mac version of their software, so dropping another $XXX on hardware to run the PC version of the app I paid for is a workaround at best. Had e-on informed me that their Mac product was flaky and that I should really have a PC and run their more stable PC version, I would have factored that in at the time of purchase and it would have been my own fault for going with the Mac product. Ugh.
