VMWare doesn't support it. Parallels supports OS X server on Apple hardware.

curious, isn't it fairly easy to install OS X on a typical intel machine now? Why not do this with VMWare?

Thanks, Steven. Those are indeed some good deals. Bummer. I've pretty much committed to the guy selling me the mini at this point. I realize it's not up to the specs of those capabilities you describe, so I may regret it. But hey, I can resell it to someone and move up when I'm ready. Thanks for the education, folks. :-) Hope others benefit.

Ebay also has some killer deals, there is a store that sells less than perfect machines (out of atlanta - http://stores.ebay.com/PartsBuffet )... just make sure you get a core 2 duo box as it supports more than 2gb of memory. I'm currently stuck at 2gb and it needs more to run jrun, vmware, CS3 at the same time.

Charlie,

I don't have one to offer, but I will offer up that you can get the best deals by buying a refurbished Mac from the Apple Store online. Save a few hundred bucks to put into RAM, drives, etc.

Well thanks very much, Derrick. Yes, my intended use would have no load at all. It's just for my own demonstration purposes, at least initially. I have some questions I'll offer off-list.

In the meantime, I may still be interested in having a real machine of my own, if anyone else has any to offer.

Charlie:

I could do some hosting for you as a favor if the load is low. As you know, running BD on an X Serve, very good results, very happy - thanks to your help over the years too!!!

Otherwise, if you want a hand, happy to pick up a used one for you and configure as a favor (the configuration that is).

Hey folks, I have a client asking me to help them with moving from running CF on Windows to running it on a Mac, and I've toyed with getting one to help with some software we also use at church. So while I've used a Mac I've not yet run CF on it and want to get some experience with it over the next
couple of weeks.

So does anyone here have one (whether a mini, a laptop, a desktop, or a server) that they may want to sell at a reasonable price? I'm not looking to run it in production, so no need for it to be especially powerful, or even perfectly functioning. I've got one offer for a mini that I could pick up
prior to tomorrow night's meeting (which if you haven't seen the
announcements, will include both prizes and an important Adobe
announcement).

I'm assuming I can run CF on any Mac (any of the models, and whether Intel or not), as long as it's a G4 or above and OS 10 or above. If anyone has thoughts that I might want to consider as I contemplate running it on
something like a mini, feel free to chime in.

Most important, if anyone has a system they'd like to have me consider, feel free to drop me a note at [EMAIL PROTECTED], or feel free to call me at
678 358 3046, before tomorrow afternoon. Thanks.
