I plan on buying a Mac mini of the new generation without an external DVD drive if possible. I do have a few PCs running Windows Vista or different Linux distributions but no Mac.
I know that it is possible to mount a DVD from a Windows PC. Is this sufficient to install a virtualized environment using Parallels Desktop 7 (which is out in a few days)?
Even better: Is it possible to install it using Boot Camp (supposingly not). Or do I need to buy an external DVD drive?
