The Bat and Mac computing

2009-08-16 Thread Achdut18
I am contemplating switching from a Windows machine to a Mac. However, I will need to run some windows-based software, so I would get something like VMware's Fusion that would allow me to do this. Has anyone used The Bat on a Mac, either directly, or using windows emulation software, such Fusion?
