Well, yesterday I bought a Macbook to accompany my G5 iMac. Reading a lot about Boot Camp made me curious enough to install it right away on my own Macbook. After that I wanted to test the sturdiness of Boot Camp and what could be a better benchmark than a heavy, professional 3D designing application (i.e. Inventor 10 Pro)? After installing I loaded a model assembly I'm working at for my job and Good Graces! It runs smoother than on the workstation that I use for work!
Notice, I use a Dell pentium 4 workstation with 2 gigs of RAM and a ATI fireGL 128 MB grapics card (and it's starting to get outdated, e.g. It's getting problems with the model I mentioned).
My Macbook only has 1 gig of RAM and 64 MB of shared video RAM. I don't know how Apple did the job on Boot Camp, but as far as I can tell (after 1 day.) it was a great job! Well, I must admid Inventor tends to be more 'crashier' than I thought in the first place.
Solution: Can Autodesk Inventor be installed on a Mac? Inventor runs on a Mac in either a Boot Camp or Parallels Windows Environments. The Macintosh system must use Boot Camp or Parallels to manage the Windows partition and meet the minimum system requirements.

After my first, euforious impressions I completed my Windows install by adding an anti virus- spy- and adware removal software. Best free antivirus for mac 2017. After that, Inventor stops unwanted when loading my complete model. When loading (smaller) sub assemblies it still runs smoothly however. I think it's a memory issue. The safety additions might use just more memory than Inventor wants to use and 1 gig when using Inventor isn't really too much, is it?
Anyway, I still can do the lighter jobs in modelling in a comfortable way.
