Has anyone run Row Pro on one of the Intel Macs running Windows XP?

In this post on the UK forum, Citreon says he talked with DR at BIRC and they said they were working on it:

But I thought I had previously read at least one report from someone using it already it. Don't know if they were using parallels or bootcamp though, or if that would make a difference.

That's what the Aussies were telling me - just couldn't remember that name "bootcamp".

They can't run it in the windows emulator as it can't use the PM3/PM4 in that configuration.

you all could give <www.parallels.com/en> a try. it's light years ahead of "bootcamp."

I downloaded bootcamp from mac and loaded my full version of Windows XP with SP2. It took a bit of work to instal XP on my mac but I was finally able get Windows officially on, loaded RowPro onto the platform. I have done 3 rows using RowPro on my mac. It has been Great!!!!!!!!!

Has anyone else done this and if so, have you luck? I am excited that I was able to pull the full range of Rows over from my profile.

As well, according to the RowPro guys, Parallels won't work. The program is not graphics intensive enough. Anyway, both Parallels and Bootcamp need a full copy of Windows to run Windows. Bootcamp will be supported by Mac with the release of the next OS.
