Hi,
My university offers Matlab, but only the windows version. What's the best way to run Matlab (windows version) on a Mac? Bootcamp or virtual machine?
thanks
Rafael

It depends on your needs: When you use a virtual machine, you can run your Mac applications in the foreground or background. With bootcamp you have to boot Windows and install all required applications there.
The virtual machine will reduce the speed of execution and the available free memory noticably. But rebooting to get some important data from the other OS will be even less efficient.
My suggestion: If your hard disk is large enough, use both methods.

I have to run some optimization methods that would take 3 days running on a regular computer (windows). My macbook is the new macbook pro. 2.5 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5 processor 4 GB DDR3 RAM; 500 GB Hard Drive
I would like to know if I will lose a lot of speed of exection if I run Matlab using virtual machine. If the difference is something like 5 minutes, I don't care.
Thanks Jan!

I am pretty sure your university purchased MATLAB in way that they also can give the Mac version to you and it is the university's decision to not support it. I can't tell you the reason but if you like, I will see if someone from MathWorks gets in touch with the university.
