Using VMware Fusion

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

Do you want to run your Windows XP programs on your new Intel Macintosh (iMac, Mac Book, Mac Book Pro or Mac Pro)? VMware Fusion can not only be configured to do this well within the Mac OS. There is no re-booting necessary. The windows programs icons show up in the Mac OS X’s dock!.

If you would like help setting this feature up. Contact me for a consultancy. I am located in the North Oakland County area. Services include coming to your buisness or place of residence. I also offer a more affordable service that provides desktop support remotely (through the internet).

Use my contact page to request further information.

Multiple Desktop Sessions on Mac OS X

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

Multiple Desktop Sessions allow more than one person to use your Macintosh computer at the same time! In Panther (Mac OS 10.3), Apple introduced “Fast User Switching” which allowed additional users to log on to the mac without the original user logging out. Instead, the original user’s desktop was carefully tucked away and could be switched back to when needed. Now in Tiger (Mac OS 10.4) all those desktops can be accessed simultaneously using Vine Server (OSXvnc). This allows multiple users to be logged in, each using his or her own desktop on the same Mac. For example:

While my daughter plays her computer game on the monitor attached to the computer…
While I access my files through the Finder and develop with XCode…
While my son can launch iTunes and have it stream music over AirTunes…
My wife can read emails and check weather on her Dashboard.
All at the same time!
