[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1211762, member: 24098"] I've seen demos of AutoCAD running well in virtualization. VMWare Fusion and Parallels Desktop both have 3D hardware acceleration, albeit with a layer of abstraction. Virtualbox I'm not as familiar with, but relative to VMWare (and even Parallels), it's an immature product. So, it doesn't surprise me that you're having some issues there. That's not to say that VirtualBox is without merit, it's just not as refined of a product as Fusion or Parallels. I guess my question is... why wouldn't you just run the Mac version of AutoCAD and call it a day? [/QUOTE]
