Lacerte on a MAC computer

Is anyone running Lacerte on an Apple MAC computer? I understand you can now install XP or Vista on a MAC, then run PC software on it.

Yes. I just switched to a Mac and needed to put Windows on it so I could run QB and Lacerte. I bought a program called VMware Fusion to run the Windows operating system. It seems to be working fine.

Have you found a solution to this? I'm looking at a VMware Fusion solution to bring windows to my Mac, but haven't found anyone doing this yet... Any advice would be helpful! Thanks.

 I have recently installed Lacerte on MAC by using vm fusion3 and it is working fine. I have found fews downsides about using it. Sticky notes are too small to see. They are not longer big and obvious and instead they looked like threadlike objects. Might mice doesn't seem to work well on scrolling pages. It functions on and off, and doesn't stop at a precise point where you like to see numbers. Sometimes it jumps from Fed to State with a slight touch.  My eyes get tired easily.  Apple should consider to design a wireless keyboard with keypad built-in. It does better for accountants.

I will use my IMAC for this coming tax season and I will let  you my thoughts.

 Help!  Running MacBook Pro with Fusion and Windows 7.  Everything was working great until 2009 Lacerte was installed.  Cannot run in Unity mode when running Lacerte.  Any ideas?  Thanks
