All the GW-8 software appz run perfectly on the Intel Mac using WINE. For more info about WINE see:
http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX

I find it much easier to use a product called Macintosh Explorer when working with the Window's files created via WINE. It's a file browser for the Mac that is similar to Windows Explorer:

I still have to figure out how to copy the Window's executable files (or shortcuts) for these various programs, so they can be placed on the Desktop, Dock, or Applications Folder in the Finder. Shouldn't be too hard! Besides using Bootcamp on the Intel Mac, I love being able to run these simple Windows programs on the Mac side without having to run any virtualization software. Awesome!

WINE or other Intel Mac emulators are only good if you have an Intel Mac...

Sadly, my friend and I are still devoted to our older G4 Macs. Sure Don't feel like buying a $1000+ Apple just to run a voice editor...

Roland need to make a Mac native editor PRONTO. A lot of musicians have these kinds of computers
