With your configuration, you should not have any trouble running either one, but I chose XP to run on my mac. I don't like vista period. But you have enough Ram, enough power and enough HD Space to run either one. You should not have any problems. If you haven't I would upgrade to Parallels 4.0 Good luck .
 
Both should run without problems. I recommend XP because Vista is a memory eater so you'll shortly notice that your RAM usage is pushed to its limits.
 
thanks for the reply...but i wont be using vista that often...i just wanna happen to support other users (yes i do get a lot of calls from ppl asking me stuff about windows). Also last time i check, the iSight was not working on Vista (it was a while ago idk if works now) Does any one know anyother problem regarding with Vista or XP on the iMac? Thanksss
