I use a number of cameras dedicated for astrophotography work in my hobby and in a small software buisiness I run. I have used Parallels extensively for cross-platform development and have been very happy with it. One limitation has been that it did not have solid enough USB support to let me...

Nope, but you can now actually run it directly in OS X. Odds are very slim of getting it going using Envisage in Parallels without far better USB support (and you'd be on USB1.1 in any case). But, Nebulosity as of today supports capture from the Meade DSIs under OS X natively. I should note...

It seems like there are aspects of DirectShow / DirectDraw that are not supported. I've got a few things in Matlab that rely on this that fail entirely. No fancy 3D or anything, just some low-level blitting I believe, but it fails hard. :( Craig

I'd posted the numbers in another thread. I am a scientist by trade, so yes, I am not so foolish as to just go by some "feel something" report. I'd posted that my benchmarks were within a tolerance of a few seconds. Of course this is with the same files. In addition, Oliver noted that his...

I too cannot see any signs of raw CPU slowdown. I just re-ran a benchmark of my own that does a good bit of disk I/O and a lot of CPU work (batch debayering 3 megapixel files using a complex debayer routine) and I'm getting the same times I was getting on several previous versions. I run the...

What are the odds Parallels will support USB2? I know the challeges are huge and my guess is the odds are slim, but I thought I'd put it out there :) Craig

I'd like to have a single spot where some code resides on the OSX side that gets compiled under both OSX and WinXP. I setup a Shared folder for my "Dev" tree to try this out. XP sees it just fine and I can copy data to it in XP just fine. I can even edit the files there in Notepad without...

I've run some benchmarks on my MBPro on Windows code run under Windows (Boot Camp) run under Parallels, and run natively under OSX. This code loads a large file, does a whole bunch of math, and saves. I know that natively under XP, I'm allocating enough RAM that a 512M machine is decidedly...
