Well after several attempts I got the game to run in the naval academy mode in the convoy training scenario....a few things I noticed that I did not like....1. the Apple mouse is not well suited for this game....I used a track ball mouse with my PC and liked it much better.....2, Although I have a 24" screen...I couldnt get it to play in full screen mode....3. I have a 3.06 GHZ processor and it was still kind of choppy at times....over 2GBs set for ram on the parallels virtual machine....dont really understand why it would be having issues.....Still havent been able to load a career....and have heard on another forum that Fusions is able to run SH III....which is also sold at the Apple store....I was going to purchase that software but the tech guy said Parallels was the better software......I guess he meant unless you want to play SH III...DOH!!!!...
