We are getting a new POS system that only runs on Mac - I'm wondering if we'd be able to run our Adagio modules on a Mac also (we have the GL & AP), or if we need to stay on a PC.

Thanks,
Jean

There are several different ways to run Windows on an Mac. Your Apple store can tell you the options.

Adagio only runs in a Windows environment.

But you already have a Windows machine for running your Adagio, and the POS system will be separate in any event. Why worry about running Adagio on it?

Apple is a very unusual operating system for business software. Have you ever looked at CounterSales (POS) for Adagio?

The new POS is already a done deal (they are getting LightSpeed - I wasn't involved in that process but it looks to be a very slick system) so all of the store terminals are switching to Mac's. But in the office I access the POS frequently when reconciling sales...however the old POS was pretty unreliable and it was necessary for me to investigate transactions often. I was just hoping to be able to access the new POS system from the comfort of my office chair, but I'm hoping I won't actually need to go into it all that much.

Thanks,
Jean

Ask the Apple reseller if Apple has the equivalent of Windows "Remote Desktop" to allow a Windows machine to "dial into" a Mac.
