FOCT on a MAC
 
Hi,

I've recently bought a macbook and would like to run the FOCT on it, since it has a few features which don't come up in the PDF documents.

Now I was wondering if any of you can advice me what the best way is to go about that? I noticed I could buy parallels or bootcamp, but I don't have an official windows version.

Any suggestions?

Also wondered which PDF browser you all use, when browsing through pdf documents it's not a smooth scrolling experience at all.

Thanks

I'm using VMWare Fusion with a original Windows 8 upgrade CD.
Windows cost me 150, max 200AED, don't remember.

You can make the system believe that you are "upgrading" rather than installing from scratch. Google it, you'll see.

It runs on a 50GB partition, which is plenty.

It all works lightning fast, much faster than in the actual aircraft.
