Unfortunately, that machine has to do duties elsewhere to replace  a dead bookkeeping PC. We are a print shop and our dominate computer OS is Mac OS X. I'm trying to decide whether to get a  basic dedicated Windows 7 PC to take over the label computer, or installing Windows 7 and the PC version of Filemaker on the most  recent previous generation or a current generation unibody Mac mini (4GB of RAM minimum) using Bootcamp under Snow Leopard.  Anyone on this list running Windows 7 on a Mac mini, using  Bootcamp? If so, how's that working out for you? Fast enough?

I am running FileMaker Pro 9 on the Mac. I don't think it would be 64 bit.
