No, its the equivalent of VMWare Workstation on the PC AFAIK. I can create new VMs under Fusion.

NM, I see it now...VMWare Fusion...for MAC. Is this basically VMWare Player for MAC? Seems if on a PC, VMWare Workstation is best, but near $200. The Player is free, but you can't create VMs with it.

Dean, which VMWare product are you speaking of here for ~$70?

That's a good question—of course. And in the interest of "full disclosure"…I have "decided" to Go MAC but have not as of yet consummated the marriage. A stronger desire to upgrade my photography equipment to Canon EOS (pro digital) prevailed so I'll be putting off the iMAC purchase off until late January. But never- the-less, minor delay or not, I do absolutely intend to move to MAC. I will keep my Windows equipment so I can cross-check, browser-check, etc.


The big dilemma that I don't have a clear answer on though is similar to your question of SQL, is all the "other software" I'm going to have to re-purchase. I did get a great recommendation for NeoOffice ( http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/features.php). This will at least cover the Microsoft Office Suite stuff. And CF Eclipse is also available for MAC.



Whatever you do best wishes. I try to always follow Yogi Bera's sage advise: When I come to a fork in the road… …I take it.

Just curious if you are able to run SQL and/or Oracle on a Mac?

I had the very same "before the year end" dilemma but had after 22 years with Microsoft have decided to GO MAC—cause it just works. Period.


Best of luck, and I do agree with Dean's comment "don't downgrade to Vista"—unless you're into horror stories.

Hope everyone had a very merry xmas and wishes for a happy new year.


I am going to buy a new notebook before Dec. 31 or at least try to get the order in before year end in order to spend the money before the 2007 tax year ends (for a write off). I was debating with myself as to what OS to get (XP or Vista). I currently use XP Pro. These are my questions if anyone has any feedback or wants to discuss:


1. Should I stay with XP Pro instead of moving to Vista?

2. Are there issues with using Adobe products like CF, DW, or other tools with Vista.

3. If I move to Vista is there a particular version I need to do CF work (home, pro, etc.)

4. If I stay with XP, do I really need the Pro version to do CF work?


Any thoughts are appreciated.


Dusty
