I am thinking of buying a new MPB retina 15" fully loaded with 1 TB drive etc.
I have been using macbook i5 for 4 years and running parallels and win 7. No real problems, just slowing down now when using mavericks OS etc.
As I now use all PC software for CAD (sketchup, Revit and ACAD) and the MAC side for my photo editing, teaching, ibooks etc.
My question: Will it be better to configure the new mac as 50% windows and 50% Mac (bootcamp) when needing to crunch away on CAD, boot up as a PC and for my other stuff Boot up as MAC. BUT, using parallels when I need to "dip" into CAD without rebooting. I assume that parallels will use the bootcamp partition as its virtual drive.
I will use an external monitor with the MBP. I remember reading issues about parallels not using the graphics cards as best as it could (not sure if this was rumour or fact).
Thanks
