Hello. Will Cool Edit Pro and Fruityloops run in Mac's Virtual PC? I'm currently using a PC and will be switching to Mac in a matter of days.

thanks.

BEWARE!

I am also a recent PC - Mac convert. I was devastated when I realized none of my former software (Acid, SoundForge, Cakewalk) would work on my new Mac.

When I learned about Virtual PC I thought I was saved. I ran out and got it the next day....

Hardly.
Bottom line, Virtual PC may be fine for running Word or other basic apps, but it is NOT meant to handle recording. Or video, for that matter.

While everything installed flawlessly, and everything worked as it should, I could not get it to play back music smoothly. I put a gig of ram in my PowerBook, allocated as much as I could to Virtual PC, ran it in Classic Mode (saves video taxing), etc... Nothing worked.

It also could not recognize my usb soundcard, and is not designed to burn cd's. I ended up uninstalling it...

Just my experience, but I wish I had just invested that $200+ dollars into new software. I love my Mac, but this transition has cost me an arm and a leg!

best,
JAMES
