+1 for CrossOver.
IIRC they have a 15-day trial, so you can make sure that the programs you need work. If VS 2005 would have run under it, I'd probably be using my iMac exclusively right now. But yeah, fast and very responsive. *cough* Even while playing Team Fortress 2. *cough* Andrew Greene IS Technician / Webmaster City of Anderson From: Michael White [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2008 11:47 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Kinda need a Mac, If they do not have a need to use digital signatures, you can install Outlook on a Mac without using Parallels or VMWare Fusion or even having to boot into windows via boot camp. Install CrossOver Mac from www.codeweavers.com. Don't have the hassle of running windows on top of OS X or using boot camp to boot into windows. My limited use so far has been rather impressive - quite quick and responsive. Waiting for them to get a version that will work with Access >2000. Once they have that, I'll pretty much be able to drop using Parallels or boot camp. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
