Use VM Ware Fusion, works like a charm for all my PC needs.. I even use Autodesk on it and it works flawlessly. Parallels is a joke, uselesss!

It only takes up however much space you need for windows - if you are only going to use it to burn some chips and nothing else, you can probably fit a plane jane XP install in about 6 gigs or less.
