RE on Mac running Windows

Is there anyone who has run RE on a Mac running Windows using VMWare Fusion? I am multitasking in deign programs on a Mac and RE on Windows. Blackbaud says "You should buy a PC." But I can't find anywhere on their system requirements for PC, just Windows.
I am interested in working from one machine and would love to keep a Mac but run Windows on it, so is there anyone who has run RE on a Mac running Windows using VMWare Fusion?

I haven't tried that, but I did find the PC requirements (below). I guess the main thing is to make sure your Virtual Machine has 1 GB of memory.
processor
(CPU)
Pentium IV or higher or Pentium IV-class or higher recommended.
memory (RAM) 1GB minimum
disk space 1 GB minimum for program and system files; plus 500 MB free disk space for processing activities.
Note: For standalone workstations, use the Disk Space chart under Database Server Recommendations to
estimate the disk space needed for database files.
display SVGA (800 x 600 resolution; 256 colors) minimum, 8-bit color or better recommended.
