Switching to Mac: Strategy

Posted by mikeg on October 29, 2008

As I alluded to in my previous post: my goal for this migration is to minimize the downtime in my productivity. I am responsible for a number of projects and cannot afford to be “exploring/learning” for 2 weeks.

My plan is the following: use VMWare Fusion to run Windows XP with all my current software/utilities and then slowly find alternatives on Mac and leave Fusion only for Visual Studio related projects.

VMware Converter Starter Edition, available as a free download, lets you migrate existing Windows machines into virtual machines for your Mac. Will probably use that to bring my current Windows XP into MBP

I’ll let you know how this works out :)
