*blog... kind of... *rss « How do you think the f... PV3D Acid Cubes » Guess what!!? (This post is not suitable for pure Mac fans) 20.01.2007 5 comments Right... What you're about to see is not a trick, it doesn't have any photoshop action on it (although I've used it for converting the screenshots from tiff to jpg). I know it's hard to believe it (at least it was to me) but what you're about to see is a real mix between MacOS X and Windows XP. (Click on the images to enlarge). Yep, that's right, MacOS bar on the top and Windows (without changing the skin yet) on the bottom. And check out the dock, Windows applications are being integrated there too. Should I mention that there is no Mac version of Winamp? Wait wait! there is even more! Again, this one is even more awesome. What you see on the screenshot is Photoshop 3 beta running under Windows which is also running under MacOS. And REALLY fast. Wow, that's amazing, a shame that Windows 3D acceleration doesn't work (YET!). There is even one more cool thing to mention, using this mix you can drag&drop files from one window to another (like from MacOS window a XP one). If you wonder how is this possible.. just check the latest beta from Parallels (Coherence mode). And, of course, you need an intelMac. So, yeah.. guess what I bought today ;) PS: If you want to see how a video of how Parallels work, check this out. PS2: I forgot to say something... Window shortcuts work!, WindowsKey+E is something I'm too used to! :P PS3: There is even one more thing! With this beta version you can use directly the WindowsXP you installed with bootcamp (so no need to create a new image). That means that if you don't need 3D acceleration you can easilly use Parallels. And in case you need, let's say.. watch a Windows demo, or maybe produce one, you can go back to bootcamp/XP and you still have there all the data. posted by ricardo cabello at 01:21 5 comments written so far ok, that's just too awesome. i think i know what my next laptop will be. :) posted by blackpawn 20.01.2007 , 01:25 And remebmer to fill up your mac with a huge amout of ram, 2Gb at least. Have you tried cross-over? it's a little buggy, but you don't need windows to run the apps. posted by xphere 20.01.2007 , 08:46 o_O i knew there was something else but couldn't remember it when you were installing xp! Now I remember I saw a guy in the ruby meeting with a macbook pro and he booted up ubuntu in a window inside mac os x. It was parallels, obviously :-) (which ran really fast as you say!) posted by sole 20.01.2007 , 09:49 Hey Doob, do you have a to use a shop-bought copy of XP or can you use a download? posted by Jonathan Clarke 25.01.2007 , 20:43 You can use a download one :) You only need a seria, you know... posted by ricardo cabello 26.01.2007 , 05:37 SORRY! Is not that I don't care about what you have to say, of course I do, but they are speaking louder and I lost my patience :(
