But executor can't run Bolo, so what's the point? =) Interesting that
during this entire thread I haven't seen anyone talk about the most

Uhh, you don't need extra hardware to run Windows on a Mac.

And you don't even need any extra software to use Windows/DOS files on a Mac.

Why one would want to is beyond my comprehension but I guess for all the
