Curse of the apple
« on: March 17, 2010, 01:34:31 AM »
At my work we currently have one imac and are adding another. this new imac will most likely have vmware fusion 3 installed on it to run our PC software. Has anyone here used it before on a mac? I am limited in mac skills. I use to be a mac user back in the ages of system 7 to 7.5 but got tired of the BS and switched to PC's I have an old mac g4 running OS 10.2 or 10.3 (ocelot, serval, garfield, maybe heathcliff..cant keep up with the names) that i dont use much but it cant run fusion. Any tricks or tips for installing? any know bugs or problems anyone has discovered?

Just install windows on it. The hardware in a Mac is the same as in most other computers.

If you plan on using vmware, then use it on some reliable *nix platform, I think we use Unix at work for that purpose.
For one thing, Tiff is not on any level what I would call a typical American.  She's not what I would consider a typical person.  I don't know any other genius geneticist anime-fan martial artist marksman model-level beauties, do you?

I will agree with AceHigh, just use BootCamp to dual boot the Mac. However, if you must use a virtulization application use VirtualBox. Its free and offers 90% of what Fusion offers. http://www.virtualbox.org
