    Hi all, for some time now I have used MS 2010 on a Windows 7 machine with BCM containing around 5500 contacts for my business. It works and I like it but I'm keen to take advantage of the small form factor with a 13" Mac Book Pro and the battery life it enjoys. Bearing in mind I own an iMac which is the family PC I am used to the OS on an apple product.


    So my questions are:
    1) Has anyone used for sometime Parallels running MS Office heavily and had any issues?
    2) Are there any really good alternatives to MS Office and the add on BCM in the mac world?
    3) Using Windows in bootcamp, does the battery have the same life between charges as in Mac OS on a mac book pro?
    4).....wait for it When is the new mac book range going to be launched?? Ok silly question that!


    Thanks for your replies in advance.


    Tom
