Hi, reading all threads "macbook vs macbook pro" i've decided to buy a black macbook; i've only two questions for you guys, the first one is about Parallels: I would like to bring my macbook to work and run XP with Parallels, it's smooth on a macbook? I don't want to use bootcamp cause some tasks i would prefer to use os x.
The secon question is about sync my Macmini at home with the macbook; what i mean is that i would like to keep a copy of my docs,photos(iPhoto) and songs (iTunes) always with me on the macbook. Is there any software that can do this? Better if wi-fi.
Thank you and sorry for my english.

I tested Parallels briefly and was amazed at how well it performed. Keep in mind that I only tested simple things such as browsing the internet, watching some streaming video, etc.

Try looking at something like SuperDuper! to help sync your files.

I use https://www.foldershare.com/ to sync files between my 2 Macs. It does it over the internet, so it works where ever you are, so long as both Macs are on and connected to the net. I find it very useful
