Hi, Windows apps and so R:BASE is working as normal on a Mac with Parallels. You can even use different screen modes (full screen, in a window or integrated) all working without problems.
There is one thing: If you use some special Windows keys like CTRL Break Esc or what ever you should do this with Parallels menu. Right click mouse menu is also not working always as expected. But I have to say on my demo Apple MacBook Air Windows apps are wokring faster and more secure than on my previous laptop with Windows. There is also the advantage to use Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows Server as OS in Parallels with use of R:BASE. If there are some questions, please let me know. I have some Parallels instances with Windows test environments and also with R:BASE 7.6 and R:BASE 8.0 Marco ----- Original Message ----- From: David Blocker To: RBASE-L Mailing List Sent: Tuesday, April 14, 2009 6:12 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Subject: Running R:Base 7.5 or 7.6 on MAC s with OS 10 and Parallel Desktop Hi all I have a client that would like to run R:Base (now 7.1, upgrading to 7.5 or 7.6) on MAC workstations using OS 10 and the program "Parallel Desktop". John at RBTI says they have no experience at their office, but says some of you have. If you have run R:Base 7.1, 7.5 and/or 7.6 in such an environment, I'd like to hear of your experiences and if there are any special steps you needed to take to make it work. Thanks!
