Parallels, so I'm hoping you'll bear with a slight re-direct and hope I am not going over well trod ground. Still I, and lots of tech people who should know, have been stumped. Long story short: Via a browser, I can access a web-based time-clock program that I installed n a Windows XP Boot Camp set up on an Intel Mac (OSX 4.10+). On any browser I simply address the ip I assigned to that Mac running Boot Camp Windows XP when behind the router (192.168.xxx.xxx series) when on LAN; and simply add port 80 to the ISP-assigned ip if operating externally. Works beautifully. So I expected the same in Parallels, but perhaps because Parallels sets up a NAT address (in he t10.xxx.xxx.xxx realm), the browser complains it cannot find the LAN address, no matter if I manually change things to the 192.168.xxx.xxx realm. Plus the cable modem router only wants to play and port assign in the 192.168.xxx.xxx neighborhood. So... would VMFusion approach this the same way? (i.e., via a NAT translation? Or am I just missing something horribly obvious. Thanks for nay attention on this, much appreciated. -bob I actually came upon this via a thread on this site last year about VM Fusion v.

Kingston has served me extremely well over the years, but recently, I've been using Crucial exclusively. There's just something about them manufacturing their own memory. The reliability and longterm performance of Crucial has never let me down. Have fun with your Mac Pro! - Adam http://www.adamreyher.com Hi Chris,

Sounds like a Linux adaptation to me; I've been doing this long before the Leopard release. I've set up a dual-boot system, using the real windows environment only for application development (don't do much gaming on my laptop). Its nice to see Mac introduce this concept to its (much) larger user base though; virtual desktops are so useful and need to be adopted by the mainstream. Running VMWare in a separate workspace?

Sherman DeForest wrote an article a few months ago recommending COMODO BO Clean and COMODO Antivirus. I purchased the antivirus and run the free BO Clean. I cannot get Vista updates to install now and get nothing out or ESET-the company behind COMODO. I cannot find an email address to communicaate with Sherman. DO you hve one? If there is a work around or solution to my issue could you let me know? Many thanks! COMODO… Sherman DeForest wrote an article a few months ago recommending COMODO BO Clean and COMODO Antivirus.
