Rather than screw around with Win7, I just ordered a used XP laptop for a few bucks more. Sure hope it works for PRS+ for my "new" 950, because the default typeface needs Help!
True about partition but 10.6.8 works happily with versions other than Win 7 in Boot Camp... and for future use, try VMware... seems happier with some USB that Parallels doesn't like (and vice-versa)... good luck...
