Hi, I just bought a new macbook pro and i have the hard drive partitioned for both os X lion and windows 7 64 bit. I was wondering if there is a performance impact running windows 7 vs mac and which would be faster and most compatable.
I mainly use the mac partition so it would be convenient for me to have it on mac instead of pc (booting takes some time).

Specs:
Intel core 2 duo 2.4ghz
2gb 1067 ddr3
9400m gt 256mb

Sorry to hear that. Big Grin

Seriously though, Windows 7 64-bit if you want to have better speed and less issues.

hey hey hey, i got the macbook for a steal on ebay and they are decent because of the portability. Theres the pros and cons, for example i can't play battefield 3 Sad
I still haven't seen you mention any pros for owning a macbook. Portability is something that all laptops have.

Win 7 will run dolphin faster and will have less issues, just like SS said.

Hm, how much did this macbook cost you actually ?

But with that hardware, you won't get much speed....
(Yes, even with Windows7 64-Bit, which is your best choice)
Don't expect any games to run properly

Agreed. You should call the cops. Tongue
Actually MBP has the best build quality of any laptop I've ever seen... and that's the only pros that I could think of. :p
Sure is fanboy-ish here Big Grin
