[DUG] Delphi in a mac :-)

the VM works like Remote Desktop.. either a window view, or a full screen
view..

They both have the option of "unity" as VM call it.. this is when they hide
the Virtual machine and run the windows apps directly on the MAC desktop..
but the virtual machine is still operating.. you simply are viewing it
differently.. I have personally found it not ideal for Delphi development..
more useful for Word. Excell etc.. I use a second monitor with Full screen..
or full screen on the Mac with Desktop switching..
