Virtualization & Emulation

*** Please note: This meeting will be both in-person and online. ***

You’ve probably heard of Parallels Desktop, VMware Fusion, or VirtualBox. These apps allow you to run an entire operating system like Windows and Linux inside your Mac. You can even install another copy of your current macOS, a beta version, or even an older version.

With apps like CrossOver, you can install a single Windows application on your Mac without having to boot up Windows.

There are also more obscure things you run in emulation like classic Mac OS, DOS games, and console games like the Nintendo.

Join us to discover all the different things you can virtualize and emulate on your Mac!

*** Please note: This meeting will be both in-person and online. ***

Do you have an older Mac that no longer supports newer versions of macOS? Did you know there is a piece of software that would allow you to bypass this limitation and breathe new life into these old Macs?

Join us to discover this software and perform a live setup and installation of a newer macOS version on an unsupported Mac.
