I've been a PC guy for a gazillion years, but various things are pulling me toward getting a MacBook Pro, but I don't want to do that if I can't run some of my video related programs, including iClone (and the other Reallusion software for that matter) and some others.

Everything I read SEEMS to indicate that a Windows 7 on the Mac runs great, and I haven't been able to find anything that would indicate that there are exceptions to what will run, but I'm wondering if anyone here is running any Reallusion software on a Mac that is running Windows 7....

My older MacPro (Dual Xeon 3.00 GHz 8 Gigs RAM 64 bit NVIDIA GeForce 8800GT I GIG) is running iClone under Bootcamp just fine. It's still the 32 bit version 5.13 iClone but runs great! :D

I did load on my older MacBook Intel with XP and was a bit sluggish cause of the graphics card I'm sure.

I am brand new to iClone so maybe it is I don't know how it should work. That being said, I have a iMac, with the 2.93 i7 core, and 12 gigs of memory. I am using Virtualbox to run windows 7 and the trial version of iClone 5. The software runs....but I can't do anything like loading back grounds, props, get rid of the "you have xx days remaining for the trial" etc. It is as if it loads and locks. I can click on the buttons on top and they look like they might do something, but nothing never happens. :unsure:

I have a iMac and I run both systems. Windows 7 runs with bootcamp perfectly. Thats no emulation, so you need to install bootcamp first and than windows 7. After that you can choose which system should start.
iClone and all other video editing software I use runs perfectly on my system. As long as your hardware is capeble of handling iClone, there should be no problem.

Your posts re running iClone via Bootcamp were helpful thanks. We are some months on now and I am thinking of iMac switch from Windows. Are you still satisfied with Mac running iclone via Bootcamp and do you think that say the quadcore intel i5 iMac with 8gb Ram and 2gb Nvidia will provide a satisfactory performance?
