Title: Is it Possible to Use MC in Mac OSX
Post by: Afrosheen on November 10, 2005, 10:43:00 pm

I'm about to buy a powerbook right now and I'm wondering if there is any way to port over MC onto the Mac.  If not, is there a possibility that MC might port over to the Mac in the future?

Sure, it will work however, yule need Virtual PC installed first.

I have a friend who has a powerbook running Virtual PC, but it's pretty resource intensive and he wasn't able to make it functional with Media Center and other media oriented programs.

For now he is stuck with Itunes and the other OSX utilities etc. that help improve Itunes. I'm curious if folks have run MC in a Windows VM before. This is something I would like to consider doing. It would make moving to Linux a bit more appealing.
