I tried the SUN Virtual Machine but didnt think it performed as well as VMWare.... one question, how much RAM are you running on your Mac? Jeremy

I use VMWare Fusion, its good. I run Windows XP with Delphi 2007 and MSSQL Server, normally in Fullscreen, but in a windows is perfectly fine.. The only downside of MAC, is that Remote Desktop for MAC is low quality compared to the windows version, so when you need to access another XP machine.. the best way is to use remote desktop from inside VMWare fusion.. You will not be dissapointed at all.. My brother is running Windows 7 and it looked good too.. ALSO, my brother is using the new FREE mac Virtual Machine from SUN.com go check that out before you pay.. he says it works well On Fri, Jun 5, 2009 at 7:53 PM, Trevor <[email protected]> wrote: So this now sounds erncouraging. Does this mean you are using VMWare Fusion? (that's what the apple store seems to be offering) Can you run an XP or Windows 7 session inside a window on your Mac? If you can, I think my credit card is about to take a massive hit..

I hope I can get it to run D2009 in a VM using Fusion or Parallels. Is this a really BAD idea?, or has anyone else on the list done it and made it work?
