Running ShareScope on a Mac
All versions of ShareScope work well on Apple Macs (with Intel Processors) using Apple Bootcamp, VMWare Fusion or Parallels Desktop. Please note, 4GB of memory is recommended for users of Parallels version 5600.
If you have a Power PC Mac you can use windows emulation software such as Virtual PC for Mac. You will still need a copy of Windows 7 or XP and we would recommend checking the minimum system.
