hey i saw a post that was regarding if it is possible to use turing on a mac and one of the replies was to use wine hq (a windows emulator that allows you to install a limited number of programs on mac) jsut wondering if anyone has done this and if so if they could tell me how they did it. i've never installed anything using wine hq/crossover. thanks |

I use VM Fusion -- it's simply amazing. |

It's more like Parallels, in terms that it's a virtualization solution that runs without rebooting. You will need your own copy of Windows to install. Though on the bright side, installing Windows through VM Fusion is incredibly easier than installing it on a PC. I was blown away by the experience. |

Does anyone know a way for Linux (Ubuntu) because I have the 64-bit and running Turing in Wine is so slow. |

VirtualBox (a virtual machine) runs on linux. It probably has a 64 bit version. |
