Lismore Software Systems Ltd. on Tuesday announced the release of Guest PC v1.7, a new version of their software-based PC emulator for Mac OS X. A free update for registered users, Guest PC costs US$69.99.
Guest PC emulators the inner workings of an x86-based computer on the Mac. Once installed, Guest PC allows you install and run Windows and Windows-compatible application software on your Mac.
“Many compatibility issues” have been fixed in this release, according to Lismore, including compatibility-related bugs in CPU/FPU core emulation modules. They’ve also achieved a performance increase of 10 percent, enhanced network functionality, better print jobs management and more.
System requirements call for a G3 or faster, Mac OS X v10.3 or later.
