Yes just download parallels and run it under that.Originally posted by Optimus View PostDoes anyone know if there is Visio or Microsoft Project avaialble for Mac? And if not, then is there an equivalent?merely at clientco for the entertainment -
Yes, Omnigraffle Pro (which will allow you to open and edit .vsd files) and Merlin.
These were the first 2 apps I bought alongside my Mac, the other one being Office 2011."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

Think I have MS Project for Mac somewhere in my collection of crap. Think it was Version 4.0 and ran on OS9, might run in Sheepshaver.
Could try Crossover (basically Wine with knobs on) see if any versions run - saves having to boot up a VM...Comment

Nah, neither of those unfortunately.Originally posted by Optimus View PostDoes anyone know if there is Visio or Microsoft Project avaialble for Mac? And if not, then is there an equivalent?
I use Visio within OSX using Parallels 7 though and it runs beautifully, same performance as native. Wouldn't bother looking for an equivalent if those are the apps you are comfortable with (and are industry standard), just VM 'em, its the way to go.Last edited by Durbs; 3 August 2012, 10:27.Comment

Thanks for that, and you are right they are industry standard and I'm definitely comfortable with these.. so long as app functionality isn't compromised then I think I'll do what you suggest. CheersOriginally posted by Durbs View PostNah, neither of those unfortunately.
