Screengrab If you want a Mac, but don't really want to leave Windows behind, the best option would be to purchase a cheap iMac or MacBook, with OS X pre-installed, then use the supplied Bootcamp software to create a separate partition for Windows XP or Vista. This would enable you to boot in to either OS X or Vista, as a separate partition, at native speeds. No emulation or anything involved. However, how do you access the contents of your Mac partition or an external formatted Mac drive, through Windows?

MacDrive 7.0.10 is a commercial solution that is installed on Windows and will run in the background checking for Mac-formatted drive. As soon as a Mac drive is found, it will enable you to access through Windows as a normal drive. You can read and write from this drive, whether it is an internal partition or external drive.
