Hi Dark, what do you mean about audio files? ON the Mac, you can access them right from within the OS, just like you can with Windows. There's support for playing many types of audio files built natively into OSX.
You simply highlight one and press space on it. It will play. YOu can also use other apps like iTunes etc. Hope this helps. Have a great day!

For me, I just don't see why! I should! upgrade other than to please microsoft's expanding pockets, (and in fairness microsoft should've included proppper backwards compatibility, after all it's not as if they don't have the money for developement). In fairness I'd need to investigate the bennifits of mac as an os, though having been quite impressed with vo's performance on the iphone I do know usage won't be as problematic as it would be with the irritating post xp interface. The only thing that puts me off mac is the stupidity with file management for audio files, (I've found a way to get folder structures on the iphone using playlists but it's not what I'd want all the time, and the fact that I need something that opens office and rtf documents. I'd also be concerned that if, as people keep claiming newer windows versions have upgraded this, latest that and more numbers in the other someone would! be more likely to make something I wanted to do on windows than on mac, (particularly since I already have access to a lot of mac stuff on ios). All the best, Dark. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Ward" <thomasward1...@gmail.com> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <gamers@audyssey.org> Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2013 8:36 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] A Note to XP users > Hi Dark, > > Yes, you can run a Windows XP virtual machine on Mac.
