    I am a bit confused. Do you have to use Boot Camp to do the Vista x64 install?
    I installed Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro 17.
    I then installed the update.
    I installed Parallels 4.0...then its latest build.
    I started Parallels desktop and then installed Windows Vista Ultimate x64 (SP1).
    I then installed Autodesk Revit 2010 x64 in my VM environment...seems to work fine (not as fast as I would like but alas OK:)
    Is this the correct procedure? Or was I supposed to do something with Boot Camp? I never saw anything related to Boot Camp come up during the installs.
    Input would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
