Has anyone put Cyclingpeaks on a new Mac with the Intel chips? I read that Virtual PC isn't compatible with these new Macs. Which emulation software are you using to run Windows?

hmm. interesting.
I too am using a multi-OS software called VMWare. It probably does the same thing as Parallel for mac.
My only complain so far in regard to the use of Cyclingpeaks under such an environment is that there seems to be some noise on my USB (emulation) port. I often have to download a ride 2 or 3 times before getting it right.

I second that Parallels Desktop suggestion. Apart from running graphic intensive programs, this is the most compatible Windows environment that doesn't requires you to reboot each time you switch OS. However, as you'll be running two OSs simultaneously, make sure you have plenty of RAM. 2G is a good number if you want something practical for work.

It's exactly what I have. The max I could put in my laptop.
That allows me to run two Windows Server 2003 + 1 XP session simultaneously.
