How would FSX run on this machine, with Boot Camp and Windows Vista (with Vista reduced to a graphical minimum)? Should X-Plane still be preferred?

I have both FSX and X-plane. Obviously X-plane runs natively on Mac OS (and very well on my machine) but it's less "user-friendly" than FSX.
 
Which Simulator? - X Plane or Microsoft Flight Simulator X Deluxe

I am getting a flight simulator for Christmas and i dont know whick one to get. I want exellent graphics (for my mac - specications at the bottom) and i want realism but i dont want too advansed as i am only 9. I need multiplayer and i want lots of planes to fly. i also want to have to be able to play it over and over again and not get too bored. I want fast and good gameplay and lots of modes to play and to be able to downaload aircraft of website and use them. I want to be able to have a long career and i want to have good scenary. I want to get Microsoft Flight Simulator X but i want to know which fs will suit me best .

Somone help me, I have a Intel i7 920 at 2.67ghz on an Asus P6T motherboard with 6gb of DDR3 Ram running with a Nvidia GTX 260 Core 216 896mb,

I tried putting it on the max settings and it was laggy, not only that but after about 30 seconds and quit on me and said ran out of memory?? Shouldn't my computer be able to handle it? What can I do to prevent this and run it maxed out with a fluid game play? Thank you!!
