> -Buy Virtual PC.  Use it the absolute minimum you need to.  Just tell the IT
> department you do have a PC at home and they will be none the wiser.  Try to
> use the Mac for as much as possible, use VPC as a last resort and never
> receive email on it if you can help it.  It won¹t win any speed awards, but
> get the version with Win 2000 and pretend it¹s a computer of that vintage and
> you should be fine.
> 
> In a pinch, buy the cheapest PC you can get and a USB KVM switch and a Mac
> Mini.  Use the PC as a stand for your Mac Mini.  Use the PC for the bare
> minimum again, but try some gaming on it ­ could be fun.
> 
> All in all, both options are cheaper in terms of $ and time than daily use and
> patching of a PC.  I have owned multiple versions of both and I just don¹t
> have time and money to maintain a PC at this point ­ VPC does it for me.
