On Apple Mac, you may install software that allows you to run Windows and Windows applications, such as R:BASE. The specific software depends on what kind of Mac you have. It is much easier and smoother if you are using the Intel-based Macs. Because newer Macs use Intel processors, they can run Windows and Windows applications as quickly as other PCs. Several different methods are available for running Windows on Intel Macs. To dual-boot between OS X and Windows, you can use Apple's Boot Camp. This approach provides the most compatibility with Windows software and peripherals, but it does not allow you to run Windows and Mac OS X applications at the same time. A second method is to run Windows in a virtual machine within OS X. Parallels Desktop, VMware Fusion, and VirtualBox use this method, and although they don't support as much Windows functionality as a dual-boot configuration, they allow you to run Mac and Windows applications concurrently. The third option makes use of a Windows compatibility layer, which allows you to run Windows programs without having to install Windows itself. A compatibility layer, such as CrossOver Mac, typically offers good functionality for a limited set of Windows applications. Having said that, the best option is to develop and deploy R:Web 9.5 Applications that can easily be deployed and managed on MS Windows 2003, 2008 (R2), and 2011 web servers, and accessed via any Desktop, Windows Tablet PC, Apple Mac, or Android Tablets regardless of the native OS or Browser. Here's a preview of 3rd Generation R:BASE eXtreme 9.5! http://www.rbase.com/3rdGenerationRBASE/RBASE_eXtreme_95_01.jpg http://www.rbase.com/3rdGenerationRBASE/RBASE_eXtreme_95_02.jpg http://www.rbase.com/3rdGenerationRBASE/RBASE_eXtreme_95_03.jpg Pay specific attention to the 3rd illustration and hope it provides you with some blue's clues ... The BEST is yet to come!
