You need to use Parallels for an Intel Mac, or VMWare Fusion.

Many thanks for the response - I have since read that Boot Camp may work?
Really struggling to get to grips with my mac it's hard swapping over from
pc. Do you know anything about this program and if it's any good? I have it
on my machine but it doesn't tell me anything about it, just not sure if I
can use my own pc version of Windows XP on this, it's a bummer if I need to
buy all my software (photoshop, office, flash etc) again:-(

Yep, that's right. You bought a Macintosh. It came with MacOS X. If
you want to run XP, you need to buy that unless you bought a commercial
copy of XP with your last computer. If it came with XP already
installed, you don't have the legal license to run it on any other
computer. And the CD you got with the PC probably has stuff on it
specific to that PC manufacturer's hardware. Cool shell game, huh?

Don't know if you need to buy photoshop, office, etc. to run them on XP
or if those versions can be legally transferred to the Macintosh under
Boot Camp. You most definitely will have to buy all new versions to run
under MacOS X.

Yes not nice if you have to buy all your APPs again, but there are
alternatives.

Here is a bit of info that may help you.
-See here for Apple Support info: http://www.apple.com/support/

-Crossover: A MacOS X APP that can run some Win APPs without Windows.

-Parallels is a MacOS X APP that creates a virtual machine in which you
can run Windows. Fusion is similar.

-If you have the Windows install disks you should be able to use it.
Boot Camp is an Apple technique running Windows natively on an Intel
Mac. I recommend this only as a last resort, because your lovely Mac is
then fully exposed to the Windows nasties.
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/

-Open Source is a source of some APPs, such as NeoOffice.
http://www.opensourcemac.org/

-Here is a very good source of MacOS software: www.versiontracker.com

There is much more MacOS info and programs out there.
Google can usually find it.

Enjoy your Mac.

You may also be able to trade your PC software licences for Mac
equivalents. When I switched over, Adobe let me replace my PC versions
with Mac versions for the cost of the disks and shipping.
