Well I've got a Macbook Pro and I'm currently looking for a way to get Garena on it. My main option would be to Bootcamp Windows 7 and play DotA and both my DotA-based games (HoN and LoL) there. I'm just wondering if you guys here in Dakka have any more better, more convenient options for me to try, other than risking a failed Bootcamp on my brand-new Mac. Also, I'm wondering if any of you guys have already tried the main option above, anything to note?

My reasons for opting for Garena
1.Call me a cheapskate but I'd rather not spend any money on this. IT'S FREE! (I spend enough on wargaming anyway )
2.Cramped computer shops just don't do it for my friends and I.
3.The Filipino teen need #2. (#1 Rice. #2 Game Addiction)

I have a Macbook pro and for Windows applications I use VMWare Fusion. Its not a free application and its the only one I have tried so I can't say its better or worse than any other solution. I can tell you that with VMWare Fusion you can book up on OS X (or whatever you are using) and run a Windows OS at the same time rather than choosing what to boot. I mainly use this for development purposes and have not tried it with any games.

Hope that helps some.
