Yup, boot camp.  Just enough space on the hard drive to run windows and aces high.  A bummer about the mac is, they do not read (as far as I know) common access cards, so I needed to run a windows based program for that as well.

Now for the PS Vita AH App.....

It is becoming obvious that HT better come up with a Mac compatible version soon, or else  :old:

I wonder if anyone has tried Fusion or Parallels?

You might need a bit of horse power though.

I'm waiting for iPad version.   :rock

I use Parallels. I watch AH films while booted into OS X in a little Windows window. It's good. I also use Solidworks that works very well too. On my Mac the fan does kick on because I've got two graphics chips and Windows can only use the fast one. It's not a problem though.

Network/internet access cards most likely: Network Cards / Wi-Fi Cards etc.

Mine works without fault or effort. Part of Bootcamp is all of the drivers / whatever it is that Windows needs to work. I play via an Airport Extreme.

Greens have you still got the disc I sent you? Also the CDs / DVDs which came with your Mac? Have you got Skype? I could talk you through it step by step. It's fairly straightforward if you've got help.
