Does ANYONE else have a newer mac book that they use to access paragon? I have a mac book pro and I tried downloading IE7 on it but it wouldn't work properly and I'm very hesitant to use boot camp and run windows on the comp. Has anyone else put windows on their comp and not had it crash? Im so afraid that as soon as I put crappy windows on the mac that BOOM all my comp will crash :( Is there an easier way to view paragon than uploading vista?

Paragon just doesn't work with Mac. Tech support admitted this, and said they were working on Mac capatibility, but I don't know if they ever have. I just keep using a PC because of this.

I have to take my wife's PC to work because of the problems I have had with Paragon and my mac. It's easier to use a PC than to deal with being on the phone with them.

I will add my experience in case anyone is searching for this information: I have a newer MacBook (Intel chip) and I used Bootcamp to partition the hard drive and install Windows 7. This works quite well. I can either start the computer as a Mac, or as a Windows computer. I have to decide at startup, I can't switch back and forth while working. The Windows computer works perfectly fine, just like any windows computer, no problem with using Paragon.

I also installed VMware Fusion 3, so that I could run a "mirror" or "software" version of Windows on top of the Mac hard drive. This means while using the computer as a Mac, I can open a "fake" software version of Windows to do some PC work, such as looking at Paragon. This is very slow and not as effective. It works in a pinch, but has some issues (mostly being slow) and is not as good as just choosing either Mac or Windows at startup.

Bootcamp is the total package, but it requires you to buy a Windows License. If you are running independent programs or applications, Bootcamp is the besst.

Crossover lets you just use the Windows applications you need. It won't run everything, but for using IE it is the best solution.
