Re: Installing Solidworks on a Mac

"Virtual Machine" is a generic term, Parallels is one good way to run one on a Mac.

I would recommend starting with Boot Camp, then pointing Parallels to your Boot Camp partition. That way you can boot straight to Windows if needed (for example, if you find Solidworks is too slow when running in a VM), and also run Windows inside a VM while running OSX. It's the best of both worlds
