    It's my line of work, so I use most of them. I even have a new MacBook running OSX and Windows XP together (need to run Outlook on a Mac).

    Spyrot, are you using BootCamp to boot into Windows on your MacBook, or do you use Parallels Desktop?

    I'm using Parallels with a full copy of XP. I've tried Crossover, but it dosn't support RPC over HTTP for Outlook. So far Parallels works very well, the only down side is the cost. You need to buy Parallels, and a full version of XP.

    So far it's working well, I can run the full version on MS Office 2003, but still have OSX available. Was using Entourage, but Entourage is a performance pig compared to Outlook. If you must have a Mac but need to connect to a corpoate network, I would greatly suggest Parallels with XP. The cool thing about it is that you can switch to full screen XP and hide OSX. it freaks people out to see Windows on a MacBook...

    I think at the time it was simulating air-bags, I think quite a few Computational Fluid Dynamics programs use it as well.
    basically they are engineering programs. I think there are new versions of fortan anyway.

    Default Running Mac

    Spyrot,

    I'm new to the Mac world, just purchased a Mac Pro for home and loving it...I'm running Parallels for my Windows application and having trouble increasing the size of my Virtual Machine. I've used the Parallels tool to increase the hard drive, it show up in the VM configuration window as my new size, but Windows won't recognize the new siize. I've tried diskpart in Windows but it gives me an error message saying the disk isn't expandable...Any thoughts?
