Using Windows XP on your Mac

Developing websites means testing on multiple browsers and platforms. I recently installed Windows XP on my MacBook Pro so I can test on both Windows and OSX browsers.
Here are some notes on how to do this:
* You must have a Mac with an Intel chip (all new Macs have Intel)
* You must purchase Windows XP ($299) and Parallels ($80).
* install Parallels first and you will be prompted to install Windows XP when Parallels starts
* make sure your computer does not sleep during either of these installs
