Try VMware Workstation 8 Free for 30 days!
If you have the time to spare or you just have to see for yourself here is the link> Install and Run Mac 10.7.1 Lion OS X from VMware Pre Installed Image (Note: all the links for downloading the MAC image can be found at SYSPROBS) Warning! Always scan images for Root-kits And because the image you are installing has been hacked by someone to make it work, updating Lion crashing the install so I recommend taking snapshots or clones so you can start over until you get things working.Īfter about 5 tries I was able to get VMware Workstation, Windows 8 and MAC Lion running pretty smooth, I also hacked (applekey “S” at boot) and reset the root since I didn’t know who created the image and I didn’t want someone from a strange place accessing my vMAC or vLion (vmware 8 mac).
Unlike running Windows on a MAC using Parallels or Fusion, running Lion on a Windows 8 System is clunky and slow. I don’t own a MAC so I thought I would have some fun and see if all the “Buzz” is true about running MAC OS X on a Windows 8 System (lab system with pre-release) using VMware Workstation.Īfter a couple of hours of downloading and tweaking, and re-downloading and re-tweaking, I can tell you that it does work, kinda!īefore you get too excited let me qualify it by saying “ don’t get your hopes up too high” because it won’t replace your Windows.
