Bootcamp, again

One of the first things I did when I got my MacBook last year was to install Bootcamp and test out my new "Winbox". It worked great, but I have to admit that after I tried out Parallels, I got lazy and stopped using Bootcamp.

Parallels made the most sense for using Windows MS Office, MS Messenger, and various other Windows-only software packages. It ran relatively fast and was easy to boot. I was a full Parallels convert.

Previous to Parallels I was basically using Bootcamp to run a StarWars RPG. It was a great game, but after I finished it I didn't really have an interest in running through the whole story again. I don't often play games and when I play them I rarely "complete" them. I most often play RPG's and Gran Turismo.

So, I basically stopped using Bootcamp. I even went through the process of removing the Bootcamp partition. That was a pain in the ass of its own magnitude - for reasons I've forgotten. Of course once I ditched the partition, I realized that I wanted to run Bootcamp again.

This time I want to try and get RealFlight up and running. I don't have an RC controller yet, but perhaps if I buy a cheap 4-channel model I can practice before I get a real plane. I can sort of test the waters and see if it's something I wanna try out.

I still have to check whether the GMA950 video chipset in the MacBook can handle the graphics. I'm holding my breath.
