It really depends on what kind of computer user you are. If you are one of 
those people who gets frustrated if the computer is the least bit sluggish, 
then, yes, you need a PC. Even if you max out on the RAM memory on the Mac 
and then give as much to the virtual machine as possible, it still is often 
not enough. The one experience that I had was with Windows XP, so, if 
Windows 7 manages memory better, it may not be the same.
