Mac vmware fusion with VM Micro OS

dear     all

as you know apple mac pro has battery power up to 7 hour because it's use OS of apple

we know that all other Laptop products can have up to 3 hour in standard battery because Microsoft OS take to much to run it

my  question is If I install vmware fusion on mac and create VM with  Microsoft OS, Is it will effect the battery of my mac laptop or not ??? can I use it up to 7 hour or up to 3 hour ??

thanks

Running Virtual Machines regardless of what OS is installed will deplete the battery relatively quickly and you will never ever get 7 hours out of a battery on a Mac when running things like Virtual Machines or any other app that is CPU/GPU intensive.
