Title: Any Windows bootcamp apps for the Mac?
Post by: SesakaX on February 04, 2010, 10:20:40 PM

I don't have any Windows computers, as of now. The only computer I have now is my iBook Mac OSX 10.4 Power PC G4.

This is the reason why I'm not making any planned MUGEN characters yet. I only sprite now :(

Does anyone know about an application that puts a Window boot camp into my Mac or an application that makes Windows-only apps (like .exe formats and others) available and readable for my Mac?

I know of a program called Fusion that can put Windows.... XP, I think it is on a Mac.

Virtualbox should do the trick for free.

I have used this before to see how the Windows 7 RC works before and it is really useful. If you have any errors make sure you Google them because there are solutions to the problem you may encounter in Vitualbox.

It said it's for Intel Macs, but mine's a Power PC G4. You know any other apps or binaries like this that runs on Power PC?

I don't think fusion would work for you either... this site could help you though...

Wow. I like the link! I'll try some of those apps. ASAP.

If you have any more applications, please show them to me!  :)

Like I said before, Fusion is the only one I know of at this time. I just happened across that site link when I google'd your problem and went "OOOOO!!" lol...
