Re: Running RD Power using WINE?

[Eric Simpson <esimpson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I see that there is a RFE (Request for enhancement) opened on RD Power for
Mac support (ID 13454) but it only has 1 vote so far.  If you want Mac
support, you can vote for the RFE.

I haven't tried RDP on Parallels, but I run SQL 2008R2, Visual Studio, MS
Project on Win 7 on a Mac Air. It works wonderfully - and it's only $80.

anyone tried running it on a Mac using WINE?? I made an attempt last week
and got the IBM Installation Manager to install and update itself, but RD
Power itself kept failing near the end of the installation process.? Was
just wondering if anyone else got any farther.
