I am in the process of trying to decide on a new desktop. I am leaning towards a MAC because I have been using it quite a bit recently and like how it performs. I am also tired of PC. I have the FSX software and I want to set it up with the MAC whenever I purchase it. What software tools can I use to make the switch without additional cables? Is the migration process a feasible option? I am guessing FSX will only run efficiently with Windows Vista/7.
There are three simple rules for making a smooth landing. Unfortunately no one knows what they are!

You'll need Bootcamp, check it out for W7-64bit compatibility.
Be sure to get a good video card.

What would be the best video card?

Do you mean Windows 7 64-bit? Thanks.
