G'day Gang,
Just wanted to post this incase anyone was considering doing the same... I am currently running SiteSpinner v2.50 on my Apple iBook using Microsoft Virtual PC and Windows 2000 with great results! As I do web design professionally it is important for me to check my design work on multiple platforms (often chopping and changing between platforms repeatedly). As there isn't a version of SS for Mac I took the leap and bought Virtual PC (a programme that allows you to run any version of Windows on a Macintosh - or even linux etc) so that I could run Windows 2000 and SS. And it works a treat! Just to let you know (incase you are considering doing the same) I am running this on a 12" 800Mhz G4 iBook with 640MB Ram. I have IE6 (on Win2000) IE 5.5, Mozilla (on Win2000 and Mac), Safari etc all running and so I am able to test designs in all, quickly and easily. *A quick tip - Windows 2000 is by far the fastest version of Windows to run on a Mac. Much faster than 9x systems (98, 98SE, Me) and much, much faster than XP Home and XP Pro (though if you do use XP, turn off all the eye candy and the Mac will thank you with faster performance... infact with some super-tweaking you can have XP run as fast as Win2000, just don't turn off or diable things you need to use!) Hope this might help someone! This message has been edited. Last edited by: Scotty, |
