I just downloaded wine and wine bottle to run windows based software ie Memory Map. It's free and does not need any other software or partitioning your hard drive.

Hi,

 

I have successfully deployed VM Ware Fusion for Mac in a number of ways, creating a new installation of Windows or exporting a complete PC as a virtual machine to the VM folder.

 

I havnt tried parallels because the VMWare Fusion permits me to run Wndows when I need it and keep it locked in its virtual container. VM Ware can access folders on the Mac so that files are backed up with Time Machine, the virtual machine is quite large so I exclude from Time Machine but have copies of the VM on another backup drive.

 

I have used Fusion from version 3 for about 3-4 years now, no problems at all.

 

I agree that Microsofts offerings are pretty nasty! I have been involved with several testing programs prior to sizeable roll-outs & worked in IT for around 30 odd years.

It was a while ago I came across wine bottle, I downloaded it from here WineBottler - Run Windows Programs directly on OS X

can't remember of any big problems when I Installed it and when that was done I just started to load the Memory Map disc in and when asked what to open the exe file with I selected wine bottle and start saving the maps to my computer. The only problem that I remember about was when I upgraded to mountain lion i had to install xQuartz to upgrade X10 to X11 but you are promoted by the computer to do this. I hope this helps
