VMWare.
I don't think detailed discussions of using virtual machines is allowed here (last time there was a discussion about it, that seemed to be the general thing: no specifics), however.
Also boot camp. basically it lets u run windows opering systems on a mac.
I was under the impression most of these are now blocked by Nexon?Quote:

I think virtual machines can still work but you have to alter something in the program settings, otherwise MS detects that you're running a virtual machine and refuses to open. Pretty sure there was a thread in the technical support section.
VMWare/Parallel/VirtualBox work, but there's tweaking involved. For me personally they still work great to this day. Your experiences may vary.
If you're willing to try here are some threads to get you started. Updated information are usually near the end of the threads.

I personally just use Bootcamp. Throw a disc with Windows on it at your Mac and start the bootcamp assistant. From there on it's child's play. You'd have to restart your Mac every time you switch though.
I don't know if it will make any difference but Tyler, forgive me if I'm wrong is XgrantwallX's brother and I think we all know who he is.Quote:

I can dual Maple with some sandbox applications too. Requires far less work, resources, and hassle.Quote:
