If someone suggests an emulator, please let me know if that would work on an ipad also.

ie to run kvs and such as well as other tools.

@smurf

you mentioned that youre using it, is it working as on a windows computer or just enables you to open windows files?

In which case you are not really running windows on mac (OS) its just a partition. Not arguing, just explaining.
