I guess I've got to come up with a business justification for buying Parallels.  I don't think the department manager will authorize it just to play a productivity-killing game at the office...

You could try WINE, a compatibility layer that allows many Windows programs to run under other operating sytems. This worked well enough for me under Linux some years ago.

Has anyone tried a VM, or Parallels on the Mac? I have a Windows machine at work but it's very outdated; the faster processors and SSD on the work mac I have would be great for those longer running games, if the VM doesn't ding performance too much.

The old work machine is at the previous job, and you couldn't make me go back for anything.

When C# Aurora is out you will be begging to come back  :) ..or you could get Virtualbox or whatever VM you have available on Mac running an old Win 7 image. Will probably take some tinkering but seems like the only practical solution unless you want to get another computer. Personally I dual-boot Windows anyway, but I'm not on a Mac.

Got to use a virtual machine of some sort.
If it's a work pc you might have trouble running a VM depending on it's security settings.
What happened to your old work pc? Maybe it's in a dumpster somewhere?

Hi guys, work has switched me to a Mac, which I haven't had as my main computer for 15 years or more.  I used to play Aurora on my PC and would like to play again... Can any of you tell me how, if it's possible, to install and run Aurora on a Mac?
