You need to buy either get Leopard and (Boot Camp) and load either XP or Vista or buy either Parallels or VMWare's Fusion.

From what I have heard through other schools that need to run this software is that even under bootcamp the response is not too good, and 3D render is not very good either. That being said I have not tried it myself yet so I am very interested in what you find out with VMware.

No good at all!

First: VMware freezes my Tiger sometimes and I never had support from this company after three days...anyway.

Second: the graphic rebuilt by the virtual pc allows only 16Mb of ram, so...what can we do with that? For Inventor I need minimum 512, but the best is 1Gb.

I uninstalled it and continue to use my Open source http://www.virtualbox.org. No problems to use Word and so on...

Regards
Patweb
