So as some people know, my computer has completely died. It was a really old computer, like a '98 Dell, so its not worth spending the money on to fix it. Instead, I am wanting to buy a new computer. I really want a Mac to do my art work, but the only thing that is keeping me from buying one is the fact that MS doesn't work on Macs.

I've been looking online for ways to make MS work on Mac. Fromwhat I can tell, it seems like a tedious process and one that requires system CDs from Windows. So what I am wondering is if anybody has had any experience with this or knows how difficult it would be.

By "tedious process" you're referring to installing XP via Bootcamp, yes?

Honestly, I have no idea other than hypothetical routes that would require too much effort.

I don't know of a good one.

Yes, Bootcamp was one of the two methods I have read about. And seeing as how I don't have access to XP (if I did, my computer issues would probaly be fixed), that's what I meant by tendious.

Probably not...

Not possible without using Windows in some form. Assuming you're talking about OS X, Wine would be able to run MS if it wasn't for gameguard.
