CPN Tools/Declare/ProM on Windows 8 (CP)

Posted on March 8, 2012 (May 18, 2018) by Michael

I already reported that I successfully ran CPN Tools and Declare on Windows 8 and that ProM started with few problems. Back then I used the (only available) Developer Preview. Recently, Microsoft released the Consumer Preview, and of course, I had to set up two machines (32 and 64 bits) and re-run all tests. The […]

I was bored, so I decided to install OS/2 Warp 3 ((The totally cool way to run your computer.)). I got the Danish version, even. Here’s the first screen you see (after you switch from the installation floppy to floppy 1 – while OS/2 Warp 3 came on a CD, it could not boot from […]

I rarely use Windows anymore (especially after I got rid of that turd of a Windows machine I got from work for the newer, prettier and smaller brincess). Sometimes, such as when I need to use our Windows-only program CPN Tools, I need Windows, however. Thankfully, using Parallels this is slightly less painful than driving […]

Simply go to the menu, select Download Chrome OS: And the download starts automatically, automatically setting up the VM: Whick boots to login in less that 5 seconds and goes to the main screen in less than 2 seconds after login […]

Parallels Desktop

I can highly recommend the newest version of Parallels Desktop for running Windows applications under OS X. I already posted, showing how the new Crystal mode makes the integration near-perfect. Disclaimer: I’m not associated with Parallels (or whatever their company is called), just a happy customer. I thought, I’d follow up on that. Today, I’ve […]
