How do you use PC software and games on a mac?

As far as I know, there are two options:\n\n1. Install Windows XP by using Boot Camp, then you can run your windows version applications and games like you do on PC. (It's free.)\n\nDownload here:\nhttp://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp\n\n2. There is an app called CrossOver. With it, you can run most of the windows apps and games just on Mac (without intalling Windows XP). (It's not free.)\n\nDownload here:\nhttp://www.codeweavers.com\n\nHope this will help!\n\nP.S. Nothing is perfect...

Just rip the CD's on your Mac with iTunes (use "Get CD track names" from the Advanced menu before importing and use 192 kbps MP3 in Preferences/Import). When you come back, just copy the MP3's from your Mac to your PC.

you can get osx to run on a dell or an amd. I got bored and its running on my work pc which is a dell and its also running on my xBox. you just need to be not a noob. but honestly if you just switch to mac you will fall inlove. Trust me i switched about 19 months ago. I am an A+ certifed technician my last pc was an AMD 64 FX 53 with 4 gigs of ram and 1 terabyte of hdd. i loved my windows but needed a mac cert for my new job so i got one thinking this will suck. i sold my pc 6 weeks later. mac is the only thing i need its so much nicer

Just to clarify the early statement. There are some core pieces of the Mac OS that are not supported on the PC side. So it is not likely that we will see anything like that happen. But if you have an old machine laying around you might take a stab at a flavor of linux.

My answer would be simple if it was a PC..  I would love to learn more about MAC's and how to use them.\n\nSad for a guy who programs for a living.    I have ONLY had to deal with PC type machines.  Well, besides main and mini frames back long ago.

Macs are like limousines to the PCs. they're usually more expensive (except the Mac Mini), and they don't suffer from the same frequent problems (viruses, crashes) as Windows machines. if you are big into gaming, you might have issues with some games not having Mac capability--but the most popular games work for Macs too. i don't know what the guy's saying about "internet" use or home use--i've never had any problems using the Net with my Mac. most people who use Macs professionally are artists, graphic designers, writers or academics. however, Macs are designed much more intuitively for the average user (the kind of people who don't know how to fix computers, but just want them to work well at the touch of a button).

Hello, You may be interested in an Emulator for your macintosh. Below is a website that will run Windows (which can then run other pc software) on your Mac. \nAnother interesting point is that Mac's will soon be manufactured using Intel chips. This may make it easier to run pc software, but only time will tell. \nHope this helps!

Apple iTunes is an example of software that was originally Mac, but has now been made for PCs also. QuickTime is another, I think.\n\n\nUPDATE -\n  And if you want to download these, go to http://www.apple.com/itunes and http://www.apple.com/quicktime/win.html

Yes.  I used to be a PC user until I saw the light.  The great thing about Macs is that everything just works.  It's easy to use and I don't have to worry about viruses (Not as much as I would using a PC anyway).

Worlds of Warcraft, since it is one of the few that will actually run on a Mac without emulation.  That will probably change once Macs switch to x86 chips, though.

Use a Mac emulator.  Search for mac emulation.  Then you can use Mac OS on your microsoft working computer.  also, PC is generic for personal computer, macs are PC.

It depends on which Hardware platform it runing and which application runs on it. \n-If you want use your PC to surf the internet and play games. Windows is your choice.\n-If you wanna have play with internet applications or you wanna have better control of your PC by yourself, try Linux.\n-If your PC is iMac or Macbook, of course MacOS!

I'm a PC/Mac user, I find Mac is easier and safer to use. with less faults and glitches

even though mac is a good operating system not much games are made for mac because it is not widely used as compared to windows and other platforms. and i m not sure could be something to do with network achitecture. because most of the games are made keepng in mind that will need alot of memory and will eat up the PC.
