Default See You Software and iMac

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


Can't speak to running under a virtual machine. I run Bootcamp (comes
with the Mac), Windows XP (I had an unused licence laying about),
running StrePla - similar load to SeeYou on a white poly macbook. No
problem, boot to bootcamp (hold down 'option' key on start, select
XP). Only problem is that the MacBook cpu fans don't seem to adjust
to temp very well under bootcamp (if at all), and the machine runs
hot. I run smcFanControl in OS X, set the fan to a higher rpm, then
restart with option key. Also handy for running usb-to-serial
converter for my Volkslogger. In XP I have an app that checks CPU and
GPU temp. Running in 3D mode on replay really runs hot - so I max the
fan, and that keeps everything under control. I have Parallels,
haven't bothered to install it.
