Title: Window Cleaning Professional on a Apple Mac
Post by: The Seven Bays Window Cleaning Company on March 30, 2012, 07:14:22 pm

I've got Window Cleaning Professional that I run on a PC, but I'm changing to a IMac.

Does anybody know if Window Cleaning Professional is set up to run on a Apple Mac?

Thanks in advance

You'll need to use a virtual machine running Windows to get it to work. Virtualbox is free and works well. Also check out Parallels and VMWare. I use Parallels myself.

Thanks Anthony... an interesting article.

Now have the Mac up and running with all my photography editing programs ... Photoshop act, and Parallels running Vista, and holding WCP.    Compared to my Dell XPS, this machine is sooo much faster.  I can have Parallels open, Photoshop and Lightroom and the performance is blindingly fast.

I was hesitant to buy the Mac, but due to the amount of photo editing I do, I needed a machine that could handle the programs and has good graphics.....  in that I'm not disappointed at all.


Don't if ant ones interested, but here's a link to my Photography page on Facebook.... would be great to get  a few more likes  ;)

Wow, amazing photos!

Just wondering - what is going on with that photo 1 of 7 in the Golitha Falls photos?  Is that mist?

Thanks Antony.

To create that effect ( misty water) I kept the shutter open for about a minute..... This make anything that moves blurry, so in water you get a misty effect.
