Testing on all operating systems from Mac.

A great to for testing multi revolution OS builds with an Intel Mac.

An app called Parallels Desktop, can run just about every OS that Revolution deploys to with out rebooting (unlike bootcamp). I got this yesterday and I now running 5 operating system at one time ( maybe two is better on system memory). A great tool for testing out your Revolution builds with needing only one cpu.

Work good enough for myself , figure those looking to test run and debug there programs without running out a buying a different cpu just to test, should take a look into this. Also, like that I can have the same program we made running at the same time side by side on two different Operating systems helps fix small interface problems easy by seeing the differences.

It is pre Release currently, meaning it is cheap but some bugs, like no usb cameras. still, it is great for what we are using it for.
