has student edition CDs!
Parallels
for running Windows XP on your Intel-chip
Mac: buy from MU bookstore. You will also
need a separate real Windows CD that
installs the full version (not just an
upgrade) of Windows XP with Service Pack
2. LDA does recommend running Vista with
your Parallels, because Vista is
problematic still on its own. You can buy
XP CDs from http://www.royaldiscount.com/miwixpprosp21.html
You will want 1gig of RAM on your Mac to
comfortably run Parallels/XP. 2gig is
better: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/
