CrossOver Mac allows you to install many popular Windows applications and games on your Intel OS X Mac. CrossOver includes an easy to use, single click interface, which makes installing Windows software simple and fast. Once installed, your application integrates seamlessly in OS X.

I just installed this and it works pretty good. I installed Internet Exploder 6.0 for the PC on my intel macbookpro.

But WHY?? :shock:

you surround them with your favor as with a shield." (Psalm 5:12)

There are some web products that require IE version 6 or above (even other browsers on Windows will not fully function.

Outlook's web access is like that (you are limited to the "light" version) as well as our campus admin system.

Why?

Because.. as Brother Bill almost eluded.... you can only design something for the worst browser online and THAT my friends is Internet EXPLODER as I affectionally & publicly call it ( I call it something else privately :evil: ).

I often create some pretty elaborate designs/code/merge that work great in ALL the other browsers.. EXCEPT Exploder. Exploder will make you redesign deviant down if you get my drift.

Having it immediately handy is a useful tool to be sure my custom code is always generating correctly on it.
