Hey
I was looking through the App Store for virtual machine software because I don't want to buy VMware fusion. But I came across a program called win on x, which seems to work like wineskin. Has anyone ever tried this? Is it easier than wine to set up? I'm thinking of installing some games through wineskin but if this is a faster experience than I may not need wineskin or sighted help at all. If anybody has used this let me know, i'd like to try this out.

I'm not sure its any better than wineskin. Its about 10 bucks, but the app looks the same. Not sure though, maybe still ask on applevis.

I chose to get VmWare Fusion in other ways. Keep upgrading the licens is damn expensive... I haven't found other solutions which works with screenreaders, games and Windows apps. Wine works with some games but not all...

Best regards SLJ.
