At long, long, last, with the new VMWare Fusion 1.1 PKR works on my MacPro if I run it in 'min spec' mode (launch it from the start menu). It runs fairly well on my 3.0GHz Mac Pro. I only give one core to VMWare. I didn't stay for long because to be honest I've gone off poker. It even runs in Unity mode so it's doesn't look quite so windows and crap.

Congrats to the VMWare guys and I guess congrats to the PKR Guys, maybe they should be offering cash players free copies of VMWare fusion.

Just a quick note: flushing the DNS cache on OSX used to be:

 
    lookupd -flushcache
 

but on Leopard (OSX 10.5) its

 
    dscacheutil -flushcache
 

As my ADSL connection goes up and down i find my DNS cache is getting screwed with.

I use VMWare Fusion to run Windows XP and FreeBSD on my Mac Pro. To be honest I mostly run in for the single Windows App I can't find a replacement for RegexBuddy.

I'll admit it's an expensive way for me to be lazy. I could test regular expression in the python command line. I'm just to lazy Anyway, to get to the point. There is a good google tech talk by one of the authors of VMWare Fusion. He goes in to the ins and outs of OSX development touching on the 'Apple creates API's for it's own needs' which I think most OSX developers know. For some reason embedding is disabled so here is the link.
