I just got a MBA and have been a long time windows user. I have a copy of XP and Sims 2 and was wondering if i should just buy Sims 2 for mac or install XP. MBA is the 1.6/80 model. Thanks

Install The Sims 2 for Mac isn't recommended because cannot handle with X3100 and slow CPU, X3100 does use CPU so much to render on games.

The Sims 2 for Windows would be ok when you turn all setting down to low.

80GB cannot take all of expansion packs for The Sims 2, external HDD would be help but still not best for games because USB 2.0 is so slower when compared to FireWire and eSATA.
