So I do have it, but still gotta do the installation work. Well: from the old windows days I do still own a copy of Windows XP (the old hardware is useless by now, only to be thrown away (and hey: compare a 'big tower' to a MacMini Core2Duo ) but of course I allways keep my software installation disks.Īnd concerning VMWare: the moment I knew I'd bay a Mac and when VMWare was still in 'beta' I bought it for the reduced introduction price.

I put my hope on that little word at the end: 'yet'! There is no RAWTherapee native release for Mac yet. Rawker (freeware) does the same thing - but adds batch processing.
