Hello All
My supervisor has asked me to investigate replacing one of our PC labs with
a Mac lab. This lab would dual boot Windows.

My thinking is use boot camp, get a keyboard (
http://matias.ca/usb2keyboard/index.php) that has keys for both OSes, use a
Mac mini with great specs.

Just want to see if anyone has done this already.  If yes:

Any pit falls I need to look out for?

Is my logic sound or is there a better way?

Would virtualization of windows make more sense using something like
parallels?

Thank you for your assistance
Rich
