I'm about ready to shoot my windows laptop!
No, I really mean I'm about to do violence to this machine. It keeps freezing up for unknown reasons. Task manager (when I can get it to run) shows high ram usage and the hard drive is running when I'm not do anything. Can't figure it out.
Ok, enough ranting about the soon to be demolished PC. I'll be buying my first Mac (13" Macbook Pro) in a few weeks. I still need Internet Explorer to access my work computer from home. (It's the only browser that will work. ) I really don't want to install a full version of windows on my new Mac just for that one program. It's my understanding (limited as it is) that I can install a program called WINE that will allow me to download and install IE 8. Is this correct? How difficult is that to do?
I'm hoping that this is possible and relatively easy to implement and use.
