So I decided to buy a new macbook (13 inch one) a few weeks ago. I installed vmware fusion and got XP Sp3 up and running real quick. It works very well and is very fast, except one thing that was killing me.
I use VibrantInk theme for VS2008, which has a black background, and when I moved my mouse over the code, I couldn't see my mouse cursor. Well it turned out it was black for some reason. I can't stand the white background, so this was a HUGE issue. But it all ends well.
How to fix:
You have to set the 'Hardware Acceleration' to one under 'Full Acceleration'. This did the trick. It is kind of annoying since the mouse kinda moves around 'laggy' like. I haven't tried the new fusion beta install, but I'll update the post if it works better with that.
