Few questions about MBP and MB

Thread Starter 
I am in the final stages of finally picking out a notebook.

I have a few questions about the MBP:

1. I know windows can be installed on a mac, but is it possible to leave the mac OS running and use any windows based programs? There are only a couple that I use that don't have mac versions.

2. Is it possible to right click (when in windows) using MBP?

3. How durable is the MBP/MB? Will it get trashed if it is dropped? My D620 is solid as a rock, drop it and nothing will happen to it.

4. Does anybody know if there is an SSH client for mac?

TIA

1. Yes but you need Parallels.

2. With a mouse yes, I don't know if control clicking works.

3. Don't drop it.

There is an application, onmac.net should have it for download, that allows control click ability in Windows.

A parallels guy was on this week's Your Mac Life talking about what it can do.
