Hey everyone. Just got my new laptop. It's a MacBookPro. Anyways, been running a thing called Parallels, that lets you run Windows XP inside of a window within OS X. You can even cut and paste from Windows to OS X and back. It's really nifty. Runs Windows stuff full-speed too, more or less, for it's using the special voodoo in the new Intel chips to do it.

Anyways, I figured out how to get Artcam working, and I thought I'd post here about it real quick.

First, install just the USB dongle drivers. Then, install Artcam. Then, in Parallels itself, go to it's menus, pull down 'Devices', pick USB, then pick USB Ultra Pro. Plug in your Keyfob and run Artcam. Point it to your licence file, and away you go...
