I would like to see the consensus for how to best run See You on an
iMac computer.


The choice is yours

o Code Weavers CrossOver Mac (http://www.codeweavers.com)
o Parellels Desktop (http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop)
o VMware Fusion (http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion)

Code Weavers will work but 3D stuff stuff probalby does not work (I've
just not kept up).
Code Weavers is a Wine base windows OS emulator the others are virtual
machines.

The later two virtual machine approaches require a full Windows
install in a virtual machine. You likely need to buy a new Windows
licenses (you can't use ole OEM licenses laying around with old PCs
you purchased). A key choice between the Code Weavers and virtual
machines is how much/what other software you want under Windows. The
virtual machine will tend to be very compatible - they *are* running
real windows. But unless you have a need for a virtual machine
approach I suggest you start by downloading an eval of Code Weavers
and see if it will work for you. Personally I use VMware Fusion, but I
have heavy/techncial Windows needs, and am a bit biased towards any
VMware products...
