Title: Ship Sim 2006 on Mac
Post by: ddg on September 05, 2009, 13:44:55: Our older PC is unable to run Ship Sim 06 but we have a new Macbook that could have Windows XP installed. Has anyone tried running Ship Sim in this environment? Thanks.

If your macbook can run xp, then you can run Shipsim on it.

But, there are no guarantees of course. You may experience strange problems that we really can't do anything about. But I do know that people run it on macs problem free. (provided they can run a dual boot with xp)

Regards,
Fred
