Can you use windows software on an Macintosh?

Windows software works in Windows only, Macintosh software works on a Macintosh only. However, you can install a windows operating system on the new macs, so in that scenario you can indeed run Windows software on a Mac. Of course, then it's only a Macintosh in body and not in spirit so-to-speak. In other words, the hardware is a Macintosh but since you are running the Windows operating system on it, it's the same as a Dell, or HP, or Gateway, etc. Fortunately however, you can switch back to your apple operating system and the world is right once again. There is Microsoft software called Virtual PC that will allow you to run both Windows within the Mac OS at the same time on an older model Apple Macintosh.
