I switched from PC to Mac a couple years ago. About the only thing I miss about Windows is EAC, which I used to rip my collection into FLAC. I think you have three options:
1) Keep ripping with EAC on your laptop. Then just connect over the network to the Mac and copy the FLAC files over. (If you have enough disk space on both your laptop and your Mac this solution also gives you a backup, too). 2) You can use Apple's bootcamp and set up part of your hard disk to run Windows XP. I would only use XP for ripping with EAC, and then copy the files over to the Mac OS. The only drag about this is you have to reboot to change OSes. 3) You could get Parallels for Mac which allows you to run Windows XP in a window inside the Mac OS. The early releases of Parallels didn't work with EAC, but the latest version does. It is much more convenient than Bootcamp and makes it really easy to move files back and forth between the two OSes. Also, if your kids need to run some random Windows program, you'll be all set. I use solution #3 and find it very convenient. muski -- muski SB3->Bryston BP25DA->Bryston 4B SST->Wilson Watt Puppy 7 Transporter via XLR->Headroom Max Balanced Headphone Amp->Balanced AKG701s & HD650s ------------------------------------------------------------------------ muski's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3670 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38634 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
