"Do you"... with a baseball bat... OUCH... Hope you dont like being able to sit down for awhile....

As per what M$ will do, it wont do anything. M$ is pretty tolerant to the sort of thing you are doing (which is suprising, as they have even given support call help for people with copies they know to be illegal). They seem to go after the big guys with a tidal wave of lawyers tho. IE, they pick their fights.

Yep. Works great. I've heared people say Parallels is better (don't know why though), but this works fine for me.

My friend, you PAID for that MS junk, so you're entitled to USE it right ?

well apparently not according to microsoft but ---fudgesicle--- it, i'm only doing it to access my old hard drive, i'm quite happy with using the mac now, between that and my linux eeepc i cant seem to find the need for windows anymore.
