Rhino running in Macs.

Ricc · November 27th, 2009

Hello,
I am just bought a mac mini to work in some graphic design tasks.
I normally work with Rhino in my laptop but with Mac I will need to install another software as Parallels or Fusion to get the windows environment.
Before buy any of them I would like to know if someone around has been working with Rhino in Macs and if works as good as under windows.
Thanks in advance.

I'd suggest bootcamp as opposed to a VM system. But if you must, try virual box by sun - its free. Either way, you'll need a windows license.

There is of course Rhino for Mac. It's not released yet (and might be buggy or not full featured) but the site does have an application for the beta program and it's worth trying.

Thanks a lot, I will try virual box.
Regarding rhino for mac apparently will be release after July next year, in that case I just will need upgrade my license.
Many thanks.
