OT: Win programs on the Mac

[Harry Binswanger <dmarc-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Myron,
You say you run some Win programs in virtual machines on the Mac. I 
wonder if I could run Autohotkey that way, which would remove the 
major barrier from me using the Mac for more than audio and vido editing?
Autohotkey intercepts keystrokes sent to other programs, so running 
it in a box might not work.

Any ideas?

TIA,

Harry
