Has anyone tried Crossover, Parallels or a similar program to run MSFS on the Intel Mac? Did it work? Was there a significant performance hit running FS that way compared to bootcamp?I have a shiny new 20" C2D iMac and will purchase FS next week. Thanks.

Parallels won't work as it hasn't got 3D hardware acceleration, however I have heard they are working on it.Crossover would have to be coded to make FS work and I haven't heard of them including support for it.So Boot Camp is the only way to go at the moment, that said even if it did work on Parallels or Crossover it wouldn't run as good.
