Toolbox on Mac

[Xavier Barker]

Hi Mark,
Sure - I use Macbook Pro with Sun's VirtualBox (free, unlike parallels) 
but you could also try Darwine (mac port for wine).  I'm also proficient 
in Ubuntu up to 9.10 (haven't tried 10.4 yet).  Again, you can run 
VirtualBox in Ubuntu if you like or just use Wine.
Cheers,
Xb
