Re: speaking of SPSS...

Mike,

New Macbook. Parallels with a Windows XP install works great. Used it to
do our BFS reports this month with Hyperion. Easy to setup; setup is
comparable to VMWare Workstation for Linux. Speed for daily tasks is
fine; but I'd recommend trying the demo for a task like SPSS.
