Anyone using a Apple Mac with Hoster

[Stefan]

I believe the new Mac can simulate or operate a Windows OS. Anyone doing this?

I'm wanting to know the same thing. It's time to upgrade the old laptop and if Hoster will run on a Mac I'm headed that way. My only concern is finding a good external sound card to replace my Audigy IIGS I'm using now.

I got the Macbook Pro and have a program called Boot Camp that will let me start up in Windows 7. Goes good so far. I now have the the best of both worlds.

Watch this space.

Works well. Have used it now many times. I am a grateful customer to MTU.

I am a Solo and duo artist as well as a karaoke host. Love my job because of Hoster.

I guess there is hope for all the Mac users after all....

Deeter, I use the iMic from Griffen Tech... Stereo, in and out full duplex. I record all singers and burn CDs for them.

never had a problem at $29 bucks (just found it on sale). it opens nice features in XP and Vista sound properties.

OK so I'm typing this right now on my new Macbook Pro with Parallels desktop running Windows 7 Pro. I got Hoster all installed and migrated over from my old Vista laptop- all my songs are there and my singers are as well.
Should I disable UAC since all my songs are on the hard drive- not an external drive?
Any suggestions for graphics settings? I think Aero is on. I tried couple of songs and they are sweeping way slow at -.5.
I set up the virtual machine memory at 2 gigs ram. I could push it farther since when I use Hoster I won't be running any other programs.
So far everything looks great if I can resolve the graphics sweep slowness. I have a USB external sound card on the way so can't wait to see how that works.....

Look at the same webpage for Vista settings. It now has the differences on it for Windows 7 as well.
