Anyone here coding from their MacBook? what VM are you running and was it a pain to setup? Tips?

You don't have to run a VM.

You can use boot camp to install windows and have both options when booting.
I had that before.

Now I just use parallels.

No more tips needed, it's very straight forward (especially if you're looking to code, setting up Windows should be the least of your problems).

Going to give Parallels a try.

I'm using VM Fusion. Works great!

Just setup Win 7 32 bit on my new retina pro macbook with VMWARE Fusion 7, got my cable in the mail today, and this weekend will give the Alpina Flash a go..
