I have no idea, Lozzo. Unlike, erm, some others here on UKRM, religion
isn't an obsession of mine.

Sniff ... sniff ... very stinky bait.

I tried to post via Google, but it doesn't seem to have been delivered,
so here I go again. Would you be able to run WINE as Mac O/S is BSD
under the skin?

Bootcamp or Parallels - both need a Windows license, though. And
Parallels costs money.

Bootcamp is the option if you use leopard, otherwise parallels is the
best of a bunch. The quick install is great for getting the system up
and running.

Does not wine run on the mac OS? Dual boot the linux distro of your
choice and install wine on that if not - completely free. Minejoo not all
windows apps run on it: what are you trying to run?

For the occasional use of some Windows software I'd still use Parallels
as it'd save you rebooting into Windows.

Or a vote for VMWare here, particularly if you need to run the same
vms on different platforms.

Wine works, but it's mostly shit. You can get the same experience
using VMWare Fusion in Unity mode which is much more reliable.

Personally I run a VM on a different space full screen and just hot
switch between the two OS's.

How much? Would I be cheaper buying a SOC and running it on that?

You'd be better off buying the Mac version of RS in the first place.

Have a look at CrossOver <http://www.codeweavers.com>

See if that will do what you need.

With or without religion,
you would have good people doing good things

But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Ta. Picked up a copy of Parallels and Win XP at the Fnac. Going to
install tonight, to see if that works.

All this to speak fucking Vietnamese ...

Or VirtualBox - the product is free but you still need an XP license.
Or if you are feeling terminally brave try the Mac version of WINE. No
Windows required but since it probably won't cope with whatever you
want to run definately a case of a saving-too-far..

Parallels and XP seem to be 'working' (insofar as anything from
Microsoft can 'work') ...

Even if I do feel a bit guilty at polluting sivan with that piece of
