I have a late 2010 MacBook Air. I need to install Windows 7 natively (like BootCamp), but I don't have a USB drive.

What are my options?

Update: I mean USB Flash Drive.

  • @ekaj Sorry I forgot that it's a MacBook Air. They don't have CD drives.

Use RemoteDiskSharing to access the drive on another computer (even a PC).

You dont have acces to another computer, you can't leave getting an USB drive, and you dont have an external DVD-Drive, as far as I know, the only thing you can do is to download Parallels.

You can use it for free for 14 days, so you can use it until you get your hands on a thumb drive.

Parallels is quite power and performance consuming, seeing as it runs Windows inside OSX, but I dont know why you need to use Windows, or how important it is.

    Also you can use Virtualbox (virtualbox.org), which is free for life and runs windows reasonably well (even with 3d acceleration in some older games if you are lucky)
